Let's find out how much more 132 is than the original number:

1. Find the original number:

- 140% of one-third of a number (x) is 46.2.

- Convert percentage: 140% = 1.4.

- Equation: (1.4) * (1/3) * x = 46.2

- Simplify: (0.4667) * x = 46.2

- Solve for x: x = 46.2 / 0.4667 ˜ 99

2. Calculate the percentage difference:

- Difference: 132 - 99 = 33.

- Percent difference: (33 / 99) * 100 ˜ 33.33%

3. Finding the correct option:

- Option 1: 66.67%

- Option 2: 33.34%

- Option 3: 17.50%

- Option 4: 22.50%
