41.3 is what percent of 34.5 - 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 34.5 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 34.5, so we can write it down as 100%=34.5.
4. We know, that x% equals 41.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=41.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=34.5
2) x%=41.3
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%=34.5/41.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 41.3 is what percent of 34.5

100%/x%=34.5/41.3
(100/x)*x=(34.5/41.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.83535108958838*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.83535108958838) to get x
100/0.83535108958838=x
119.71014492754=x
x=119.71014492754

now we have:
41.3 is 119.71014492754% of 34.5
