10 is what percent of 15?

I put in 66.67 but the program I'm using says I'm wrong.

%/100 = is/of so x/100= 10/15 15x =1000 x= 66.6667 repeating, maybe you have a specific decimal place to round up to?

Maybe it's expecting a whole number and no fractional/decimal parts. Have you tried 67?

Does the program tell you if it wants a whole number or a certain number of decimal places? Does it want a percent sign included with your answer?
