30.68 is what percent of 1013 - 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 1013 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 1013, so we can write it down as 100%=1013.
4. We know, that x% equals 30.68 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=30.68.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1013
2) x%=30.68
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%=1013/30.68
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 30.68 is what percent of 1013

100%/x%=1013/30.68
(100/x)*x=(1013/30.68)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=33.018252933507*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (33.018252933507) to get x
100/33.018252933507=x
3.0286278381046=x
x=3.0286278381046

now we have:
30.68 is 3.0286278381046% of 1013
