6.53 is what percent of 32.95 - 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 32.95 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 32.95, so we can write it down as 100%=32.95.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.53 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.53.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=32.95
2) x%=6.53
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%=32.95/6.53
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.53 is what percent of 32.95

100%/x%=32.95/6.53
(100/x)*x=(32.95/6.53)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.0459418070444*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.0459418070444) to get x
100/5.0459418070444=x
19.817905918058=x
x=19.817905918058

now we have:
6.53 is 19.817905918058% of 32.95
