70.68 is what percent of 351.64 - 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 351.64 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 351.64, so we can write it down as 100%=351.64.
4. We know, that x% equals 70.68 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=70.68.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=351.64
2) x%=70.68
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%=351.64/70.68
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 70.68 is what percent of 351.64

100%/x%=351.64/70.68
(100/x)*x=(351.64/70.68)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.9750990379174*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.9750990379174) to get x
100/4.9750990379174=x
20.100102377431=x
x=20.100102377431

now we have:
70.68 is 20.100102377431% of 351.64
