104.32 is what percent of 16308 - 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 16308 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 16308, so we can write it down as 100%=16308.
4. We know, that x% equals 104.32 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=104.32.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=16308
2) x%=104.32
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%=16308/104.32
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 104.32 is what percent of 16308

100%/x%=16308/104.32
(100/x)*x=(16308/104.32)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=156.32668711656*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (156.32668711656) to get x
100/156.32668711656=x
0.63968604365955=x
x=0.63968604365955

now we have:
