650.16 is what percent of 975.24 - 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 975.24 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 975.24, so we can write it down as 100%=975.24.
4. We know, that x% equals 650.16 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=650.16.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=975.24
2) x%=650.16
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%=975.24/650.16
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 650.16 is what percent of 975.24

100%/x%=975.24/650.16
(100/x)*x=(975.24/650.16)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.5*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.5) to get x
100/1.5=x
66.666666666667=x
x=66.666666666667

now we have:
650.16 is 66.666666666667% of 975.24
