571.3 is what percent of 650 - 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 650 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 650, so we can write it down as 100%=650.
4. We know, that x% equals 571.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=571.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=650
2) x%=571.3
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%=650/571.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 571.3 is what percent of 650

100%/x%=650/571.3
(100/x)*x=(650/571.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1377559950989*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1377559950989) to get x
100/1.1377559950989=x
87.892307692308=x
x=87.892307692308

now we have:
571.3 is 87.892307692308% of 650
