To convert $14 \frac{2}{3}\%$ to a fraction, first convert the mixed number to an improper fraction: $14 \frac{2}{3} = \frac{44}{3}$. Then, since the percentage represents a part out of 100, the fraction is $\frac{44}{3} \times \frac{1}{100} = \frac{44}{300}$. Simplifying this fraction gives $\frac{11}{75}$.
