320.7 is what percent of 653.84 - 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 653.84 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 653.84, so we can write it down as 100%=653.84.
4. We know, that x% equals 320.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=320.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=653.84
2) x%=320.7
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%=653.84/320.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 320.7 is what percent of 653.84

100%/x%=653.84/320.7
(100/x)*x=(653.84/320.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.0387901465544*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.0387901465544) to get x
100/2.0387901465544=x
49.048696928912=x
x=49.048696928912

now we have:
320.7 is 49.048696928912% of 653.84
