6.63 is what percent of 457 - 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 457 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 457, so we can write it down as 100%=457.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=457
2) x%=6.63
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%=457/6.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.63 is what percent of 457

100%/x%=457/6.63
(100/x)*x=(457/6.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=68.929110105581*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (68.929110105581) to get x
100/68.929110105581=x
1.4507658643326=x
x=1.4507658643326

now we have:
6.63 is 1.4507658643326% of 457
