1.98 is what percent of 301.65 - 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 301.65 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 301.65, so we can write it down as 100%=301.65.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.98 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.98.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=301.65
2) x%=1.98
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%=301.65/1.98
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.98 is what percent of 301.65

100%/x%=301.65/1.98
(100/x)*x=(301.65/1.98)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=152.34848484848*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (152.34848484848) to get x
100/152.34848484848=x
0.65638985579314=x
x=0.65638985579314

now we have:
1.98 is 0.65638985579314% of 301.65
