336.65 is what percent of 395 - 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 395 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 395, so we can write it down as 100%=395.
4. We know, that x% equals 336.65 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=336.65.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=395
2) x%=336.65
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%=395/336.65
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 336.65 is what percent of 395

100%/x%=395/336.65
(100/x)*x=(395/336.65)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1733254121491*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1733254121491) to get x
100/1.1733254121491=x
85.227848101266=x
x=85.227848101266

now we have:
336.65 is 85.227848101266% of 395
