150.4 is what percent of 30.328 - 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 30.328 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 30.328, so we can write it down as 100%=30.328.
4. We know, that x% equals 150.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=150.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=30.328
2) x%=150.4
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%=30.328/150.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 150.4 is what percent of 30.328

100%/x%=30.328/150.4
(100/x)*x=(30.328/150.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.20164893617021*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.20164893617021) to get x
100/0.20164893617021=x
495.91136903192=x
x=495.91136903192

now we have:
150.4 is 495.91136903192% of 30.328
