637.44 is what percent of 9600 - 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 9600 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 9600, so we can write it down as 100%=9600.
4. We know, that x% equals 637.44 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=637.44.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9600
2) x%=637.44
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%=9600/637.44
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 637.44 is what percent of 9600

100%/x%=9600/637.44
(100/x)*x=(9600/637.44)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=15.060240963855*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.060240963855) to get x
100/15.060240963855=x
6.64=x
x=6.64

now we have:
637.44 is 6.64% of 9600
