193.2 is what percent of 64.4 - 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 64.4 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 64.4, so we can write it down as 100%=64.4.
4. We know, that x% equals 193.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=193.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=64.4
2) x%=193.2
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%=64.4/193.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 193.2 is what percent of 64.4

100%/x%=64.4/193.2
(100/x)*x=(64.4/193.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.33333333333333*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.33333333333333) to get x
100/0.33333333333333=x
300=x
x=300

now we have:
193.2 is 300% of 64.4
