43.37 is what percent of 410.6 - 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 410.6 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 410.6, so we can write it down as 100%=410.6.
4. We know, that x% equals 43.37 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=43.37.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=410.6
2) x%=43.37
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%=410.6/43.37
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 43.37 is what percent of 410.6

100%/x%=410.6/43.37
(100/x)*x=(410.6/43.37)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.4673737606641*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.4673737606641) to get x
100/9.4673737606641=x
10.562591329761=x
x=10.562591329761

now we have:
43.37 is 10.562591329761% of 410.6
