0.66 is what percent of 33.33 - 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 33.33 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 33.33, so we can write it down as 100%=33.33.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.66 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.66.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=33.33
2) x%=0.66
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%=33.33/0.66
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.66 is what percent of 33.33

100%/x%=33.33/0.66
(100/x)*x=(33.33/0.66)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=50.5*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (50.5) to get x
100/50.5=x
1.980198019802=x
x=1.980198019802

now we have:
0.66 is 1.980198019802% of 33.33
