81 is what percent of 570 - 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 570 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 570, so we can write it down as 100%=570.
4. We know, that x% equals 81 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=81.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=570
2) x%=81
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%=570/81
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 81 is what percent of 570

100%/x%=570/81
(100/x)*x=(570/81)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7.037037037037*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.037037037037) to get x
100/7.037037037037=x
14.210526315789=x
x=14.210526315789

now we have:
81 is 14.210526315789% of 570
