the answer you are looking for is 70% because 60*.7=42 and .7 is 70% in decimal form to get this you do 42/60 (42 divided by 60)=.7 and .7 multiplied by 100%= 70%
42
Just break the words down into mathematical symbols. 70%=.7, we will call the unnamed number X. So you have (.7)X=42, divide by .7 to get X=42/.7 or X=42(10/7)=420/7=60.
I assume you are asking what 60% of 70 is. If so, multiply 70 x .60 to find. (70 x .60 = 42). 60 is 42% of 70.
42/7 = 6 or, if you must have a mixed number, 60/1
