363.11 is what percent of 480 - 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 480 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 480, so we can write it down as 100%=480.
4. We know, that x% equals 363.11 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=363.11.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=480
2) x%=363.11
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%=480/363.11
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 363.11 is what percent of 480

100%/x%=480/363.11
(100/x)*x=(480/363.11)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3219134697475*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3219134697475) to get x
100/1.3219134697475=x
75.647916666667=x
x=75.647916666667

now we have:
363.11 is 75.647916666667% of 480
