101.66 is what percent of 1305 - 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 1305 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 1305, so we can write it down as 100%=1305.
4. We know, that x% equals 101.66 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=101.66.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1305
2) x%=101.66
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%=1305/101.66
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 101.66 is what percent of 1305

100%/x%=1305/101.66
(100/x)*x=(1305/101.66)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=12.836907338186*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (12.836907338186) to get x
100/12.836907338186=x
7.7900383141762=x
x=7.7900383141762

now we have:
101.66 is 7.7900383141762% of 1305
