302.1 is what percent of 570 - 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 570 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 570, so we can write it down as 100%=570.
4. We know, that x% equals 302.1 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=302.1.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=570
2) x%=302.1
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%=570/302.1
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 302.1 is what percent of 570

100%/x%=570/302.1
(100/x)*x=(570/302.1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.8867924528302*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.8867924528302) to get x
100/1.8867924528302=x
53=x
x=53

now we have:
302.1 is 53% of 570
