66.68 is what percent of 1368.5 - 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 1368.5 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 1368.5, so we can write it down as 100%=1368.5.
4. We know, that x% equals 66.68 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=66.68.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1368.5
2) x%=66.68
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%=1368.5/66.68
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 66.68 is what percent of 1368.5

100%/x%=1368.5/66.68
(100/x)*x=(1368.5/66.68)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=20.523395320936*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (20.523395320936) to get x
100/20.523395320936=x
4.8724881256851=x
x=4.8724881256851

now we have:
66.68 is 4.8724881256851% of 1368.5
