207.1 is what percent of 3484 - 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 3484 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 3484, so we can write it down as 100%=3484.
4. We know, that x% equals 207.1 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=207.1.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3484
2) x%=207.1
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%=3484/207.1
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 207.1 is what percent of 3484

100%/x%=3484/207.1
(100/x)*x=(3484/207.1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=16.82279092226*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16.82279092226) to get x
100/16.82279092226=x
5.9443168771527=x
x=5.9443168771527

now we have:
207.1 is 5.9443168771527% of 3484
