5.71 is what percent of 5.67 - 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 5.67 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 5.67, so we can write it down as 100%=5.67.
4. We know, that x% equals 5.71 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=5.71.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5.67
2) x%=5.71
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%=5.67/5.71
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 5.71 is what percent of 5.67

100%/x%=5.67/5.71
(100/x)*x=(5.67/5.71)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.99299474605954*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.99299474605954) to get x
100/0.99299474605954=x
100.70546737213=x
x=100.70546737213

now we have:
5.71 is 100.70546737213% of 5.67
