3.65 is what percent of 54.13 - 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 54.13 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 54.13, so we can write it down as 100%=54.13.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.65 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.65.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=54.13
2) x%=3.65
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%=54.13/3.65
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.65 is what percent of 54.13

100%/x%=54.13/3.65
(100/x)*x=(54.13/3.65)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=14.830136986301*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.830136986301) to get x
100/14.830136986301=x
6.743026048402=x
x=6.743026048402

now we have:
3.65 is 6.743026048402% of 54.13
