3.47 is what percent of 67.43 - 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 67.43 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 67.43, so we can write it down as 100%=67.43.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.47 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.47.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=67.43
2) x%=3.47
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%=67.43/3.47
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.47 is what percent of 67.43

100%/x%=67.43/3.47
(100/x)*x=(67.43/3.47)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=19.432276657061*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (19.432276657061) to get x
100/19.432276657061=x
5.1460774136141=x
x=5.1460774136141

now we have:
3.47 is 5.1460774136141% of 67.43
