516.75 is what percent of 680.84 - 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 680.84 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 680.84, so we can write it down as 100%=680.84.
4. We know, that x% equals 516.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=516.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=680.84
2) x%=516.75
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%=680.84/516.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 516.75 is what percent of 680.84

100%/x%=680.84/516.75
(100/x)*x=(680.84/516.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.317542331882*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.317542331882) to get x
100/1.317542331882=x
75.898889606956=x
x=75.898889606956

now we have:
