80.33 is what percent of 321.31 - 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 321.31 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 321.31, so we can write it down as 100%=321.31.
4. We know, that x% equals 80.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=80.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=321.31
2) x%=80.33
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%=321.31/80.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 80.33 is what percent of 321.31

100%/x%=321.31/80.33
(100/x)*x=(321.31/80.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.9998755135068*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.9998755135068) to get x
100/3.9998755135068=x
25.000778064797=x
x=25.000778064797

now we have:
80.33 is 25.000778064797% of 321.31
