67 is what percent of 1212 - 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 1212 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 1212, so we can write it down as 100%=1212.
4. We know, that x% equals 67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1212
2) x%=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%=1212/67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 67 is what percent of 1212

100%/x%=1212/67
(100/x)*x=(1212/67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=18.089552238806*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (18.089552238806) to get x
100/18.089552238806=x
5.5280528052805=x
x=5.5280528052805

now we have:
67 is 5.5280528052805% of 1212
