Question

16 is what percent of 24

Answer 1

100%/x%=24/16
(100/x)*x=(24/16)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.5*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.5) to get x
100/1.5=x
66.6666666667=x
x=66.6666666667

now we have:
16 is 66.6666666667% of 24

Answer 2

16 divided by 24 = 66.6666%
