54.75 is what percent of 675.39 - 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 675.39 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 675.39, so we can write it down as 100%=675.39.
4. We know, that x% equals 54.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=54.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=675.39
2) x%=54.75
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%=675.39/54.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 54.75 is what percent of 675.39

100%/x%=675.39/54.75
(100/x)*x=(675.39/54.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=12.335890410959*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (12.335890410959) to get x
100/12.335890410959=x
8.1064273975037=x
x=8.1064273975037

now we have:
54.75 is 8.1064273975037% of 675.39
