323.9 is what percent of 365.9 - 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 365.9 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 365.9, so we can write it down as 100%=365.9.
4. We know, that x% equals 323.9 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=323.9.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=365.9
2) x%=323.9
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%=365.9/323.9
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 323.9 is what percent of 365.9

100%/x%=365.9/323.9
(100/x)*x=(365.9/323.9)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1296696511269*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1296696511269) to get x
100/1.1296696511269=x
88.521453949166=x
x=88.521453949166

now we have:
323.9 is 88.521453949166% of 365.9
