3.3 is what percent of 82.64 - 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 82.64 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 82.64, so we can write it down as 100%=82.64.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=82.64
2) x%=3.3
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%=82.64/3.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.3 is what percent of 82.64

100%/x%=82.64/3.3
(100/x)*x=(82.64/3.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=25.042424242424*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (25.042424242424) to get x
100/25.042424242424=x
3.9932236205227=x
x=3.9932236205227

now we have:
3.3 is 3.9932236205227% of 82.64
