439.64 is what percent of 760 - 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 760 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 760, so we can write it down as 100%=760.
4. We know, that x% equals 439.64 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=439.64.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=760
2) x%=439.64
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%=760/439.64
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 439.64 is what percent of 760

100%/x%=760/439.64
(100/x)*x=(760/439.64)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.7286871076335*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.7286871076335) to get x
100/1.7286871076335=x
57.847368421053=x
x=57.847368421053

now we have:
439.64 is 57.847368421053% of 760
