0.35 is what percent of 0.69 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 0.69 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 0.69, so we can write it down as 100%=0.69.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.35 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.35.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=0.69
2) x%=0.35
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=0.69/0.35
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.35 is what percent of 0.69

100%/x%=0.69/0.35
(100/x)*x=(0.69/0.35)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.9714285714286*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.9714285714286) to get x
100/1.9714285714286=x
50.724637681159=x
x=50.724637681159

now we have:
0.35 is 50.724637681159% of 0.69
