343.62 is what percent of 453 - 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 453 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 453, so we can write it down as 100%=453.
4. We know, that x% equals 343.62 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=343.62.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=453
2) x%=343.62
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%=453/343.62
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 343.62 is what percent of 453

100%/x%=453/343.62
(100/x)*x=(453/343.62)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3183167452418*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3183167452418) to get x
100/1.3183167452418=x
75.854304635762=x
x=75.854304635762

now we have:
343.62 is 75.854304635762% of 453
