99 is what percent of 63360 - 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 63360 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 63360, so we can write it down as 100%=63360.
4. We know, that x% equals 99 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=99.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=63360
2) x%=99
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%=63360/99
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 99 is what percent of 63360

100%/x%=63360/99
(100/x)*x=(63360/99)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=640*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (640) to get x
100/640=x
0.15625=x
x=0.15625

now we have:
99 is 0.15625% of 63360
