32.67 is what percent of 61.54 - 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 61.54 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 61.54, so we can write it down as 100%=61.54.
4. We know, that x% equals 32.67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=32.67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=61.54
2) x%=32.67
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%=61.54/32.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 32.67 is what percent of 61.54

100%/x%=61.54/32.67
(100/x)*x=(61.54/32.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.8836853382308*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.8836853382308) to get x
100/1.8836853382308=x
53.08742281443=x
x=53.08742281443

now we have:
32.67 is 53.08742281443% of 61.54
