Answer:

[tex]160 kg\,,8ton[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Firstly turning into an improper fraction. Multiplying the whole number by the denominator, then add it to the numerator,(66*3+2)/3 (over the denominator). Since it is a percentual number, we can simplify it.

[tex]66\: \frac{2}{3}\%=\frac{200}{3}\%\Rightarrow \frac{2}{3}\\[/tex]

2) Then [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] is the quantity of purity in this iron ore so:

[tex]\frac{2}{3}*240=160[/tex]

160kg

3) 12 tons? Since 12 ton (12 000 kg) then:

[tex]12 \,ton*\frac{2}{3}=8 \,ton[/tex]

8 ton (8000 kg)
