379.71 is what percent of 441.61 - 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 441.61 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 441.61, so we can write it down as 100%=441.61.
4. We know, that x% equals 379.71 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=379.71.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=441.61
2) x%=379.71
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%=441.61/379.71
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 379.71 is what percent of 441.61

100%/x%=441.61/379.71
(100/x)*x=(441.61/379.71)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1630191461905*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1630191461905) to get x
100/1.1630191461905=x
85.983107266593=x
x=85.983107266593

now we have:
