1.31 is what percent of 453.31 - 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 453.31 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 453.31, so we can write it down as 100%=453.31.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.31 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.31.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=453.31
2) x%=1.31
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%=453.31/1.31
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.31 is what percent of 453.31

100%/x%=453.31/1.31
(100/x)*x=(453.31/1.31)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=346.03816793893*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (346.03816793893) to get x
100/346.03816793893=x
0.28898546248704=x
x=0.28898546248704

now we have:
1.31 is 0.28898546248704% of 453.31
