635.5 is what percent of 1.004 - 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 1.004 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 1.004, so we can write it down as 100%=1.004.
4. We know, that x% equals 635.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=635.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1.004
2) x%=635.5
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%=1.004/635.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 635.5 is what percent of 1.004

100%/x%=1.004/635.5
(100/x)*x=(1.004/635.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.001579858379229*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.001579858379229) to get x
100/0.001579858379229=x
63296.812749004=x
x=63296.812749004

now we have:
635.5 is 63296.812749004% of 1.004
