1.67 is what percent of 5.768 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 5.768 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 5.768, so we can write it down as 100%=5.768.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5.768
2) x%=1.67
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=5.768/1.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.67 is what percent of 5.768

100%/x%=5.768/1.67
(100/x)*x=(5.768/1.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.4538922155689*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.4538922155689) to get x
100/3.4538922155689=x
28.952843273232=x
x=28.952843273232

now we have:
1.67 is 28.952843273232% of 5.768
