333.8 is what percent of 481 - 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 481 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 481, so we can write it down as 100%=481.
4. We know, that x% equals 333.8 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=333.8.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=481
2) x%=333.8
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%=481/333.8
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 333.8 is what percent of 481

100%/x%=481/333.8
(100/x)*x=(481/333.8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.4409826243259*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4409826243259) to get x
100/1.4409826243259=x
69.397089397089=x
x=69.397089397089

now we have:
333.8 is 69.397089397089% of 481
