348.68 is what percent of 374.9 - 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 374.9 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 374.9, so we can write it down as 100%=374.9.
4. We know, that x% equals 348.68 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=348.68.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=374.9
2) x%=348.68
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%=374.9/348.68
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 348.68 is what percent of 374.9

100%/x%=374.9/348.68
(100/x)*x=(374.9/348.68)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0751978891821*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0751978891821) to get x
100/1.0751978891821=x
93.006134969325=x
x=93.006134969325

now we have:
348.68 is 93.006134969325% of 374.9
