624.69 is what percent of 768 - 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 768 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 768, so we can write it down as 100%=768.
4. We know, that x% equals 624.69 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=624.69.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=768
2) x%=624.69
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%=768/624.69
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 624.69 is what percent of 768

100%/x%=768/624.69
(100/x)*x=(768/624.69)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.2294097872545*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2294097872545) to get x
100/1.2294097872545=x
81.33984375=x
x=81.33984375

now we have:
624.69 is 81.33984375% of 768
