610.71 is what percent of 802.5 - 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 802.5 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 802.5, so we can write it down as 100%=802.5.
4. We know, that x% equals 610.71 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=610.71.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=802.5
2) x%=610.71
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%=802.5/610.71
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 610.71 is what percent of 802.5

100%/x%=802.5/610.71
(100/x)*x=(802.5/610.71)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3140443090829*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3140443090829) to get x
100/1.3140443090829=x
76.100934579439=x
x=76.100934579439

now we have:
610.71 is 76.100934579439% of 802.5
