21.3 is what percent of 67 - 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 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, so we can write it down as 100%=67.
4. We know, that x% equals 21.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=21.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=67
2) x%=21.3
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%=67/21.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 21.3 is what percent of 67

100%/x%=67/21.3
(100/x)*x=(67/21.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.1455399061033*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.1455399061033) to get x
100/3.1455399061033=x
31.791044776119=x
x=31.791044776119

now we have:
21.3 is 31.791044776119% of 67
