What is 33⅓ as a decimal?

A decimal number can be defined as a number whose whole number part and the fractional part are separated by a decimal point.

Answer: 33⅓ in decimal form is 33.3333.

Let's look into the conversion of 33⅓ to decimals.

Explanation:

33⅓ can be re-written as 33 + 1/3.

So, it is good enough to find 1/3 as a decimal and add 33 to it.

The decimal form of 1/3 can be found by dividing 1 by 3.

1 divided by 3 is 0.3333...

The quotient is non-terminating as the digit 3 after the decimal point is repeating.

33 1/3 = 33 + 1/3 = 33 + 0.3333... = 33.3333...

It is called a non-terminating recurring decimal number.

Thus, 33⅓ in decimal form is 33.3333.
