163.81 is what percent of 1630 - 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 1630 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 1630, so we can write it down as 100%=1630.
4. We know, that x% equals 163.81 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=163.81.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1630
2) x%=163.81
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%=1630/163.81
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 163.81 is what percent of 1630

100%/x%=1630/163.81
(100/x)*x=(1630/163.81)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.9505524693242*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.9505524693242) to get x
100/9.9505524693242=x
10.049693251534=x
x=10.049693251534

now we have:
163.81 is 10.049693251534% of 1630
