326.83 is what percent of 1635.06 - 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 1635.06 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 1635.06, so we can write it down as 100%=1635.06.
4. We know, that x% equals 326.83 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=326.83.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1635.06
2) x%=326.83
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%=1635.06/326.83
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 326.83 is what percent of 1635.06

100%/x%=1635.06/326.83
(100/x)*x=(1635.06/326.83)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.0027843221247*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.0027843221247) to get x
100/5.0027843221247=x
19.988868910009=x
x=19.988868910009

now we have:
326.83 is 19.988868910009% of 1635.06
