390.31 is what percent of 430.32 - 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 430.32 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 430.32, so we can write it down as 100%=430.32.
4. We know, that x% equals 390.31 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=390.31.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=430.32
2) x%=390.31
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%=430.32/390.31
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 390.31 is what percent of 430.32

100%/x%=430.32/390.31
(100/x)*x=(430.32/390.31)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.102508262663*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.102508262663) to get x
100/1.102508262663=x
90.702268079569=x
x=90.702268079569

now we have:
390.31 is 90.702268079569% of 430.32
