693.6 is what percent of 3023.6 - 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 3023.6 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 3023.6, so we can write it down as 100%=3023.6.
4. We know, that x% equals 693.6 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=693.6.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3023.6
2) x%=693.6
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%=3023.6/693.6
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 693.6 is what percent of 3023.6

100%/x%=3023.6/693.6
(100/x)*x=(3023.6/693.6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.3592848904268*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.3592848904268) to get x
100/4.3592848904268=x
22.939542267496=x
x=22.939542267496

now we have:
693.6 is 22.939542267496% of 3023.6
