1569.75 is what percent of 455 - 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 455 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 455, so we can write it down as 100%=455.
4. We know, that x% equals 1569.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1569.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=455
2) x%=1569.75
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%=455/1569.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1569.75 is what percent of 455

100%/x%=455/1569.75
(100/x)*x=(455/1569.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.28985507246377*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.28985507246377) to get x
100/0.28985507246377=x
345=x
x=345

now we have:
1569.75 is 345% of 455
