64.95 is what percent of 1169.1 - 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 1169.1 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 1169.1, so we can write it down as 100%=1169.1.
4. We know, that x% equals 64.95 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=64.95.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1169.1
2) x%=64.95
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%=1169.1/64.95
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 64.95 is what percent of 1169.1

100%/x%=1169.1/64.95
(100/x)*x=(1169.1/64.95)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=18*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (18) to get x
100/18=x
5.5555555555556=x
x=5.5555555555556

now we have:
64.95 is 5.5555555555556% of 1169.1
