8.67 is what percent of 67 - 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 67 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 67, so we can write it down as 100%=67.
4. We know, that x% equals 8.67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=8.67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=67
2) x%=8.67
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%=67/8.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 8.67 is what percent of 67

100%/x%=67/8.67
(100/x)*x=(67/8.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7.7277970011534*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.7277970011534) to get x
100/7.7277970011534=x
12.940298507463=x
x=12.940298507463

now we have:
8.67 is 12.940298507463% of 67
