1067.2 is what percent of 6670 - 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 6670 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 6670, so we can write it down as 100%=6670.
4. We know, that x% equals 1067.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1067.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6670
2) x%=1067.2
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%=6670/1067.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1067.2 is what percent of 6670

100%/x%=6670/1067.2
(100/x)*x=(6670/1067.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=6.25*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.25) to get x
100/6.25=x
16=x
x=16

now we have:
1067.2 is 16% of 6670
