10.65 is what percent of 1064.57 - 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 1064.57 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 1064.57, so we can write it down as 100%=1064.57.
4. We know, that x% equals 10.65 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=10.65.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1064.57
2) x%=10.65
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%=1064.57/10.65
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 10.65 is what percent of 1064.57

100%/x%=1064.57/10.65
(100/x)*x=(1064.57/10.65)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=99.959624413146*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (99.959624413146) to get x
100/99.959624413146=x
1.0004039189532=x
x=1.0004039189532

now we have:
10.65 is 1.0004039189532% of 1064.57
