17.67 is what percent of 67.33 - 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 67.33 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 67.33, so we can write it down as 100%=67.33.
4. We know, that x% equals 17.67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=17.67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=67.33
2) x%=17.67
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%=67.33/17.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 17.67 is what percent of 67.33

100%/x%=67.33/17.67
(100/x)*x=(67.33/17.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.8104131295982*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.8104131295982) to get x
100/3.8104131295982=x
26.243873459082=x
x=26.243873459082

now we have:
17.67 is 26.243873459082% of 67.33
