2.67 is what percent of 132.67 - 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 132.67 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 132.67, so we can write it down as 100%=132.67.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=132.67
2) x%=2.67
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%=132.67/2.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.67 is what percent of 132.67

100%/x%=132.67/2.67
(100/x)*x=(132.67/2.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=49.689138576779*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (49.689138576779) to get x
100/49.689138576779=x
2.012512248436=x
x=2.012512248436

now we have:
2.67 is 2.012512248436% of 132.67
