67.3 is what percent of 247 - 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 247 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 247, so we can write it down as 100%=247.
4. We know, that x% equals 67.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=67.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=247
2) x%=67.3
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%=247/67.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 67.3 is what percent of 247

100%/x%=247/67.3
(100/x)*x=(247/67.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.6701337295691*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.6701337295691) to get x
100/3.6701337295691=x
27.246963562753=x
x=27.246963562753

now we have:
67.3 is 27.246963562753% of 247
