67 is what percent of 711 - 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 711 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 711, so we can write it down as 100%=711.
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%=711
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%=711/67
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 711

100%/x%=711/67
(100/x)*x=(711/67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.611940298507*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.611940298507) to get x
100/10.611940298507=x
9.4233473980309=x
x=9.4233473980309

now we have:
67 is 9.4233473980309% of 711
