45.07 is what percent of 100 - 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 100 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 100, so we can write it down as 100%=100.
4. We know, that x% equals 45.07 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=45.07.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=100
2) x%=45.07
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%=100/45.07
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 45.07 is what percent of 100

100%/x%=100/45.07
(100/x)*x=(100/45.07)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.2187708009763*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.2187708009763) to get x
100/2.2187708009763=x
45.07=x
x=45.07

now we have:
45.07 is 45.07% of 100
