27.63 is what percent of 34.33 - 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 34.33 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 34.33, so we can write it down as 100%=34.33.
4. We know, that x% equals 27.63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=27.63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=34.33
2) x%=27.63
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%=34.33/27.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 27.63 is what percent of 34.33

100%/x%=34.33/27.63
(100/x)*x=(34.33/27.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.2424900470503*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2424900470503) to get x
100/1.2424900470503=x
80.483542091465=x
x=80.483542091465

now we have:
27.63 is 80.483542091465% of 34.33
