Well, you divide 2/3 by 100:
100 / (2/3) = 150
Now multiply it by the result:
150 * 33.3 = 4995
----
Overall, you always divide the percentage given by 100 and then multiply that result with the answer given.

33.3 ÷ (2/3)%
= 33.3 ÷ (2/3)/100
= 33.3 x 100/(2/3)
= 3330/(2/3)
= 3330(3/2)
= 9990/2
= 4995

x be the # u are looking for
2/3% is also equal to 66.66% which is equal to .66
.66(x)=33.33
* divide both sides by .66 to get the value of x
x=50.5
2/3% of 50.5=33.33
