To find the percentage equivalent of a fraction, you can use the following formula:
Percentage = (Numerator / Denominator) * 100
In this case, you have the fraction 2/3. Let's calculate the percentage:
Percentage = (2 / 3) * 100
Percentage = 0.666... * 100
Percentage = 66.666...
Rounded to the nearest whole number, the percentage is 67%. Since none of the answer choices match 67%, we can look for the one that is closest. Option C, 66 2/3%, is the closest approximation, so the correct answer is C.
