34.05 is what percent of 319.95 - 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 319.95 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 319.95, so we can write it down as 100%=319.95.
4. We know, that x% equals 34.05 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=34.05.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=319.95
2) x%=34.05
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%=319.95/34.05
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 34.05 is what percent of 319.95

100%/x%=319.95/34.05
(100/x)*x=(319.95/34.05)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.3964757709251*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.3964757709251) to get x
100/9.3964757709251=x
10.642287857478=x
x=10.642287857478

now we have:
34.05 is 10.642287857478% of 319.95
