Answer:

3%

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to write 53.3 as a fraction of 1780, which is simply

53.3/1780

Now we need to multiply the numerator and denominator of the fraction by 10 to get rid of the decimal

53.3/1780 = 53.3/1780 x 10/10=533/17800

Now we just need to convert this fraction to a percentage :

533/17800 = 2.99438202247191

2.99438202247191 to the nearest tenth simpifies to 3

So, $53.3 is about 3% of $1780
