631.4 is what percent of 804.24 - 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 804.24 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 804.24, so we can write it down as 100%=804.24.
4. We know, that x% equals 631.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=631.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=804.24
2) x%=631.4
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%=804.24/631.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 631.4 is what percent of 804.24

100%/x%=804.24/631.4
(100/x)*x=(804.24/631.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.2737408932531*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2737408932531) to get x
100/1.2737408932531=x
78.50890281508=x
x=78.50890281508

now we have:
631.4 is 78.50890281508% of 804.24
