321.3 is what percent of 365 - 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 365 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 365, so we can write it down as 100%=365.
4. We know, that x% equals 321.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=321.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=365
2) x%=321.3
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%=365/321.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 321.3 is what percent of 365

100%/x%=365/321.3
(100/x)*x=(365/321.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1360099595394*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1360099595394) to get x
100/1.1360099595394=x
88.027397260274=x
x=88.027397260274

now we have:
321.3 is 88.027397260274% of 365
