206.27 is what percent of 318 - 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 318 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 318, so we can write it down as 100%=318.
4. We know, that x% equals 206.27 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=206.27.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=318
2) x%=206.27
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%=318/206.27
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 206.27 is what percent of 318

100%/x%=318/206.27
(100/x)*x=(318/206.27)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.5416686866728*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.5416686866728) to get x
100/1.5416686866728=x
64.864779874214=x
x=64.864779874214

now we have:
206.27 is 64.864779874214% of 318
