13.59 is what percent of 414.75 - 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 414.75 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 414.75, so we can write it down as 100%=414.75.
4. We know, that x% equals 13.59 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=13.59.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=414.75
2) x%=13.59
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%=414.75/13.59
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 13.59 is what percent of 414.75

100%/x%=414.75/13.59
(100/x)*x=(414.75/13.59)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=30.518763796909*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (30.518763796909) to get x
100/30.518763796909=x
3.2766726943942=x
x=3.2766726943942

now we have:
13.59 is 3.2766726943942% of 414.75
