41.05 is what percent of 45 - 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 45 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 45, so we can write it down as 100%=45.
4. We know, that x% equals 41.05 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=41.05.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=45
2) x%=41.05
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%=45/41.05
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 41.05 is what percent of 45

100%/x%=45/41.05
(100/x)*x=(45/41.05)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0962241169306*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0962241169306) to get x
100/1.0962241169306=x
91.222222222222=x
x=91.222222222222

now we have:
41.05 is 91.222222222222% of 45
