233.63 is what percent of 346.79 - 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 346.79 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 346.79, so we can write it down as 100%=346.79.
4. We know, that x% equals 233.63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=233.63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=346.79
2) x%=233.63
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%=346.79/233.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 233.63 is what percent of 346.79

100%/x%=346.79/233.63
(100/x)*x=(346.79/233.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.4843556050165*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4843556050165) to get x
100/1.4843556050165=x
67.369301306266=x
x=67.369301306266

now we have:
233.63 is 67.369301306266% of 346.79
