1.63 is what percent of 57.32 - 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 57.32 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 57.32, so we can write it down as 100%=57.32.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=57.32
2) x%=1.63
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%=57.32/1.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.63 is what percent of 57.32

100%/x%=57.32/1.63
(100/x)*x=(57.32/1.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=35.165644171779*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (35.165644171779) to get x
100/35.165644171779=x
2.8436845778088=x
x=2.8436845778088

now we have:
1.63 is 2.8436845778088% of 57.32
