6.31 is what percent of 3.25 - 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 3.25 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 3.25, so we can write it down as 100%=3.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.31 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.31.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3.25
2) x%=6.31
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%=3.25/6.31
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.31 is what percent of 3.25

100%/x%=3.25/6.31
(100/x)*x=(3.25/6.31)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.51505546751189*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.51505546751189) to get x
100/0.51505546751189=x
194.15384615385=x
x=194.15384615385

now we have:
6.31 is 194.15384615385% of 3.25
