615.74 is what percent of 100.28 - 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 100.28 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 100.28, so we can write it down as 100%=100.28.
4. We know, that x% equals 615.74 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=615.74.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=100.28
2) x%=615.74
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%=100.28/615.74
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 615.74 is what percent of 100.28

100%/x%=100.28/615.74
(100/x)*x=(100.28/615.74)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.16286094780264*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.16286094780264) to get x
100/0.16286094780264=x
614.02074192262=x
x=614.02074192262

now we have:
