Answer:
$26.80
Explanation:
(I don't know exactly how other people were taught to do percentages, but this is how I was taught and I find it the easiest for me.)
You are going to subtract your percentage number by 100.
100 - 33 = 67
This will give you your multiplier so you can then get your answer but you have to turn it into a decimal.
0.67 x 40 = 26.80
