6.1 is what percent of 0.32 - 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 0.32 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 0.32, so we can write it down as 100%=0.32.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.1 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.1.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=0.32
2) x%=6.1
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%=0.32/6.1
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.1 is what percent of 0.32

100%/x%=0.32/6.1
(100/x)*x=(0.32/6.1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.052459016393443*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.052459016393443) to get x
100/0.052459016393443=x
1906.25=x
x=1906.25

now we have:
6.1 is 1906.25% of 0.32
