6.53 is what percent of 343.29 - 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 343.29 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 343.29, so we can write it down as 100%=343.29.
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%=343.29
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%=343.29/6.53
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 343.29

100%/x%=343.29/6.53
(100/x)*x=(343.29/6.53)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=52.571209800919*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (52.571209800919) to get x
100/52.571209800919=x
1.9021818287745=x
x=1.9021818287745

now we have:
6.53 is 1.9021818287745% of 343.29
