630.48 is what percent of 20800 - 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 20800 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 20800, so we can write it down as 100%=20800.
4. We know, that x% equals 630.48 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=630.48.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=20800
2) x%=630.48
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%=20800/630.48
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 630.48 is what percent of 20800

100%/x%=20800/630.48
(100/x)*x=(20800/630.48)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=32.990737216089*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (32.990737216089) to get x
100/32.990737216089=x
3.0311538461538=x
x=3.0311538461538

now we have:
630.48 is 3.0311538461538% of 20800
