27.63 is what percent of 43.08 - 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 43.08 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 43.08, so we can write it down as 100%=43.08.
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%=43.08
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%=43.08/27.63
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 43.08

100%/x%=43.08/27.63
(100/x)*x=(43.08/27.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.5591748099891*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.5591748099891) to get x
100/1.5591748099891=x
64.136490250696=x
x=64.136490250696

now we have:
27.63 is 64.136490250696% of 43.08
