484.5 is what percent of 6603.2 - 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 6603.2 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 6603.2, so we can write it down as 100%=6603.2.
4. We know, that x% equals 484.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=484.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6603.2
2) x%=484.5
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%=6603.2/484.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 484.5 is what percent of 6603.2

100%/x%=6603.2/484.5
(100/x)*x=(6603.2/484.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=13.628895768834*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.628895768834) to get x
100/13.628895768834=x
7.3373515871093=x
x=7.3373515871093

now we have:
484.5 is 7.3373515871093% of 6603.2
