98.48 is what percent of 66 - 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 66 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 66, so we can write it down as 100%=66.
4. We know, that x% equals 98.48 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=98.48.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=66
2) x%=98.48
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%=66/98.48
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 98.48 is what percent of 66

100%/x%=66/98.48
(100/x)*x=(66/98.48)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.67018683996751*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.67018683996751) to get x
100/0.67018683996751=x
149.21212121212=x
x=149.21212121212

now we have:
98.48 is 149.21212121212% of 66
