29.64 is what percent of 64.99 - 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 64.99 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 64.99, so we can write it down as 100%=64.99.
4. We know, that x% equals 29.64 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=29.64.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=64.99
2) x%=29.64
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%=64.99/29.64
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 29.64 is what percent of 64.99

100%/x%=64.99/29.64
(100/x)*x=(64.99/29.64)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.192645074224*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.192645074224) to get x
100/2.192645074224=x
45.607016464071=x
x=45.607016464071

now we have:
29.64 is 45.607016464071% of 64.99
