319.33 is what percent of 482 - 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 482 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 482, so we can write it down as 100%=482.
4. We know, that x% equals 319.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=319.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=482
2) x%=319.33
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%=482/319.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 319.33 is what percent of 482

100%/x%=482/319.33
(100/x)*x=(482/319.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.509410327874*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.509410327874) to get x
100/1.509410327874=x
66.251037344398=x
x=66.251037344398

now we have:
319.33 is 66.251037344398% of 482
