319 is what percent of 1 - 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 1 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 1, so we can write it down as 100%=1.
4. We know, that x% equals 319 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=319.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1
2) x%=319
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%=1/319
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 319 is what percent of 1

100%/x%=1/319
(100/x)*x=(1/319)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.0031347962382445*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0031347962382445) to get x
100/0.0031347962382445=x
31900=x
x=31900

now we have:
319 is 31900% of 1
