401.16 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 401.16 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=401.16.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=630
2) x%=401.16
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%=630/401.16
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 401.16 is what percent of 630

100%/x%=630/401.16
(100/x)*x=(630/401.16)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.5704457074484*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.5704457074484) to get x
100/1.5704457074484=x
63.67619047619=x
x=63.67619047619

now we have:
401.16 is 63.67619047619% of 630
