6.68 is what percent of 222 - 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 222 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 222, so we can write it down as 100%=222.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.68 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.68.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=222
2) x%=6.68
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%=222/6.68
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.68 is what percent of 222

100%/x%=222/6.68
(100/x)*x=(222/6.68)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=33.233532934132*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (33.233532934132) to get x
100/33.233532934132=x
3.009009009009=x
x=3.009009009009

now we have:
6.68 is 3.009009009009% of 222
