1.65 is what percent of 25.25 - 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 25.25 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 25.25, so we can write it down as 100%=25.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.65 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.65.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=25.25
2) x%=1.65
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%=25.25/1.65
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.65 is what percent of 25.25

100%/x%=25.25/1.65
(100/x)*x=(25.25/1.65)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=15.30303030303*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.30303030303) to get x
100/15.30303030303=x
6.5346534653465=x
x=6.5346534653465

now we have:
1.65 is 6.5346534653465% of 25.25
