111% of what number is 33.3

We express the percentage as follows:

111% = 111 out of 100 = 111/100

then we write an equation for the problem statement:

(111%) (x) = 33.3

that is to say that a number x multiplied by the 111% is equal to 33.3, so we solve for x:

(111/100) (x) = 33.3

111x = (33.3) (100) = 3330

x = 3330/111

x = 30

therefore the number is 30, and we can say that 111% of 30 equals to 33.3
