413.64 is what percent of 1149 - 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 1149 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 1149, so we can write it down as 100%=1149.
4. We know, that x% equals 413.64 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=413.64.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1149
2) x%=413.64
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%=1149/413.64
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 413.64 is what percent of 1149

100%/x%=1149/413.64
(100/x)*x=(1149/413.64)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.7777777777778*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.7777777777778) to get x
100/2.7777777777778=x
36=x
x=36

now we have:
413.64 is 36% of 1149
