To find the percent of a number, divide the number you want to figure out what percent of the other number is by the other number. 42 divided by 60 is 0.7. Then you have to move the decimal two places to the right, giving you 70. The answer is 70%.

42 is 70% of 60. 

To find the answer, set up a proportion. 

42/60 = x/100

Cross multiply to get the equation 60x=4200

4200/60=70

70/100 = 70%
