45.11 is what percent of 1545 - 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 1545 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 1545, so we can write it down as 100%=1545.
4. We know, that x% equals 45.11 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=45.11.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1545
2) x%=45.11
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%=1545/45.11
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 45.11 is what percent of 1545

100%/x%=1545/45.11
(100/x)*x=(1545/45.11)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=34.24961205941*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (34.24961205941) to get x
100/34.24961205941=x
2.9197411003236=x
x=2.9197411003236

now we have:
45.11 is 2.9197411003236% of 1545
