235.06 is what percent of 375.06 - 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 375.06 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 375.06, so we can write it down as 100%=375.06.
4. We know, that x% equals 235.06 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=235.06.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=375.06
2) x%=235.06
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%=375.06/235.06
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 235.06 is what percent of 375.06

100%/x%=375.06/235.06
(100/x)*x=(375.06/235.06)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.5955926146516*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.5955926146516) to get x
100/1.5955926146516=x
62.67263904442=x
x=62.67263904442

now we have:
235.06 is 62.67263904442% of 375.06
