566.98 is what percent of 929.5 - 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 929.5 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 929.5, so we can write it down as 100%=929.5.
4. We know, that x% equals 566.98 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=566.98.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=929.5
2) x%=566.98
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%=929.5/566.98
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 566.98 is what percent of 929.5

100%/x%=929.5/566.98
(100/x)*x=(929.5/566.98)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.6393876327207*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.6393876327207) to get x
100/1.6393876327207=x
60.998386229155=x
x=60.998386229155

now we have:
