3.45 is what percent of 90.53 - 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 90.53 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 90.53, so we can write it down as 100%=90.53.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.45 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.45.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=90.53
2) x%=3.45
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%=90.53/3.45
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.45 is what percent of 90.53

100%/x%=90.53/3.45
(100/x)*x=(90.53/3.45)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=26.240579710145*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (26.240579710145) to get x
100/26.240579710145=x
3.8108914172098=x
x=3.8108914172098

now we have:
3.45 is 3.8108914172098% of 90.53
