634.28 is what percent of 1102 - 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 1102 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 1102, so we can write it down as 100%=1102.
4. We know, that x% equals 634.28 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=634.28.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1102
2) x%=634.28
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%=1102/634.28
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 634.28 is what percent of 1102

100%/x%=1102/634.28
(100/x)*x=(1102/634.28)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.737403039667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.737403039667) to get x
100/1.737403039667=x
57.557168784029=x
x=57.557168784029

now we have:
634.28 is 57.557168784029% of 1102
