653.18 is what percent of 767.67 - 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 767.67 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 767.67, so we can write it down as 100%=767.67.
4. We know, that x% equals 653.18 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=653.18.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=767.67
2) x%=653.18
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%=767.67/653.18
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 653.18 is what percent of 767.67

100%/x%=767.67/653.18
(100/x)*x=(767.67/653.18)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1752809332803*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1752809332803) to get x
100/1.1752809332803=x
85.086039574296=x
x=85.086039574296

now we have:
