466.02 is what percent of 548 - 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 548 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 548, so we can write it down as 100%=548.
4. We know, that x% equals 466.02 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=466.02.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=548
2) x%=466.02
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%=548/466.02
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 466.02 is what percent of 548

100%/x%=548/466.02
(100/x)*x=(548/466.02)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1759151967727*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1759151967727) to get x
100/1.1759151967727=x
85.040145985401=x
x=85.040145985401

now we have:
466.02 is 85.040145985401% of 548
