333.56 is what percent of 1081.8 - 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 1081.8 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 1081.8, so we can write it down as 100%=1081.8.
4. We know, that x% equals 333.56 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=333.56.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1081.8
2) x%=333.56
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%=1081.8/333.56
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 333.56 is what percent of 1081.8

100%/x%=1081.8/333.56
(100/x)*x=(1081.8/333.56)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.2431946276532*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.2431946276532) to get x
100/3.2431946276532=x
30.833795525975=x
x=30.833795525975

now we have:
333.56 is 30.833795525975% of 1081.8
