191.2 is what percent of 325.04 - 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 325.04 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 325.04, so we can write it down as 100%=325.04.
4. We know, that x% equals 191.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=191.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=325.04
2) x%=191.2
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%=325.04/191.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 191.2 is what percent of 325.04

100%/x%=325.04/191.2
(100/x)*x=(325.04/191.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.7*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.7) to get x
100/1.7=x
58.823529411765=x
x=58.823529411765

now we have:
191.2 is 58.823529411765% of 325.04
