387.26 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 387.26 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=387.26.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=67
2) x%=387.26
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%=67/387.26
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 387.26 is what percent of 67

100%/x%=67/387.26
(100/x)*x=(67/387.26)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.17301038062284*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.17301038062284) to get x
100/0.17301038062284=x
578=x
x=578

now we have:
387.26 is 578% of 67
