What percentage is 5 out of 7?

Most of the posts to your question are correct. What ever you do, don't follow "intellectual". I think he was confused.
He isn't wrong, but fractions are an improper way to display a percentage.

5/7 = .7143

When you multiply this by 100 it becomes a percentage = 71.43%

Enjoy!

= 100%(5/7)
= 500/7% or 71 3/7%

Answer: 71 3/7% or 71.42 6/7%

5/7 * 100

5/7 x 100%
= 500/7 %
= 71 3/7 %

divide 5 by 7 and multiply that by 100. that's how to find a percentage.

What Is The Percentage Of 5

I see a lot of parts here that may confuse you.

You divide 5/7, then you multiply the answer by 100, then go ahead and simplify and the answer comes to 71.4% Not 71.43%.

(5/7) x 100% = 500 / 7 % = 71 3/7%

71 % to nearest whole number.

5/7*100

percent means "per 100 parts". Form the eqn:

5/7 = x/100
7x = 500
x = 500/7
= 71.43%
