Question

Two feet is what percent of a yard? And please explain how I find the answer

Answer 1

Percent means parts out of 100
x%=x/100

1 yard=3 feet
2 feet is what percent of 3 feet?
2=x% times 3
2=x/100 times 3
2=3x/100
multiply both sides by 100
200=3x
divide both sides by 3
66.6666666=x
answer is 66.66666%
