366.67 is what percent of 518 - 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 518 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 518, so we can write it down as 100%=518.
4. We know, that x% equals 366.67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=366.67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=518
2) x%=366.67
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%=518/366.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 366.67 is what percent of 518

100%/x%=518/366.67
(100/x)*x=(518/366.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.4127144298688*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4127144298688) to get x
100/1.4127144298688=x
70.785714285714=x
x=70.785714285714

now we have:
366.67 is 70.785714285714% of 518
