644.41 is what percent of 801.5 - 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 801.5 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 801.5, so we can write it down as 100%=801.5.
4. We know, that x% equals 644.41 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=644.41.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=801.5
2) x%=644.41
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%=801.5/644.41
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 644.41 is what percent of 801.5

100%/x%=801.5/644.41
(100/x)*x=(801.5/644.41)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.2437733740941*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2437733740941) to get x
100/1.2437733740941=x
80.400499064255=x
x=80.400499064255

now we have:
644.41 is 80.400499064255% of 801.5
