480.2 is what percent of 565000 - 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 565000 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 565000, so we can write it down as 100%=565000.
4. We know, that x% equals 480.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=480.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=565000
2) x%=480.2
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%=565000/480.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 480.2 is what percent of 565000

100%/x%=565000/480.2
(100/x)*x=(565000/480.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1176.5930862141*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1176.5930862141) to get x
100/1176.5930862141=x
0.084991150442478=x
x=0.084991150442478

now we have:
480.2 is 0.084991150442478% of 565000
