64.11 is what percent of 250 - 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 250 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 250, so we can write it down as 100%=250.
4. We know, that x% equals 64.11 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=64.11.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=250
2) x%=64.11
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%=250/64.11
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 64.11 is what percent of 250

100%/x%=250/64.11
(100/x)*x=(250/64.11)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.8995476524723*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.8995476524723) to get x
100/3.8995476524723=x
25.644=x
x=25.644

now we have:
64.11 is 25.644% of 250
