3.11 is what percent of 449.11 - 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 449.11 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 449.11, so we can write it down as 100%=449.11.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.11 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.11.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=449.11
2) x%=3.11
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%=449.11/3.11
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.11 is what percent of 449.11

100%/x%=449.11/3.11
(100/x)*x=(449.11/3.11)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=144.40836012862*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (144.40836012862) to get x
100/144.40836012862=x
0.69248068401951=x
x=0.69248068401951

now we have:
3.11 is 0.69248068401951% of 449.11
