176.75 is what percent of 267 - 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 267 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 267, so we can write it down as 100%=267.
4. We know, that x% equals 176.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=176.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=267
2) x%=176.75
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%=267/176.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 176.75 is what percent of 267

100%/x%=267/176.75
(100/x)*x=(267/176.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.5106082036775*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.5106082036775) to get x
100/1.5106082036775=x
66.198501872659=x
x=66.198501872659

now we have:
176.75 is 66.198501872659% of 267
