353.5 is what percent of 630 - 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 630 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 630, so we can write it down as 100%=630.
4. We know, that x% equals 353.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=353.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=630
2) x%=353.5
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%=630/353.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 353.5 is what percent of 630

100%/x%=630/353.5
(100/x)*x=(630/353.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.7821782178218*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.7821782178218) to get x
100/1.7821782178218=x
56.111111111111=x
x=56.111111111111

now we have:
353.5 is 56.111111111111% of 630
