612.97 is what percent of 659.11 - 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 659.11 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 659.11, so we can write it down as 100%=659.11.
4. We know, that x% equals 612.97 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=612.97.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=659.11
2) x%=612.97
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%=659.11/612.97
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 612.97 is what percent of 659.11

100%/x%=659.11/612.97
(100/x)*x=(659.11/612.97)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0752728518525*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0752728518525) to get x
100/1.0752728518525=x
92.99965104459=x
x=92.99965104459

now we have:
