332.02 is what percent of 648.8 - 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 648.8 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 648.8, so we can write it down as 100%=648.8.
4. We know, that x% equals 332.02 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=332.02.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=648.8
2) x%=332.02
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%=648.8/332.02
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 332.02 is what percent of 648.8

100%/x%=648.8/332.02
(100/x)*x=(648.8/332.02)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.9540991506536*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.9540991506536) to get x
100/1.9540991506536=x
51.17447595561=x
x=51.17447595561

now we have:
332.02 is 51.17447595561% of 648.8
