325.7 is what percent of 678 - 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 678 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 678, so we can write it down as 100%=678.
4. We know, that x% equals 325.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=325.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=678
2) x%=325.7
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%=678/325.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 325.7 is what percent of 678

100%/x%=678/325.7
(100/x)*x=(678/325.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.0816702486951*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.0816702486951) to get x
100/2.0816702486951=x
48.038348082596=x
x=48.038348082596

now we have:
325.7 is 48.038348082596% of 678
