528.25 is what percent of 768 - 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 768 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 768, so we can write it down as 100%=768.
4. We know, that x% equals 528.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=528.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=768
2) x%=528.25
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%=768/528.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 528.25 is what percent of 768

100%/x%=768/528.25
(100/x)*x=(768/528.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.4538570752485*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4538570752485) to get x
100/1.4538570752485=x
68.782552083333=x
x=68.782552083333

now we have:
528.25 is 68.782552083333% of 768
