What is 75.3 percent of 510.3 - 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 510.3 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 510.3 is 100%, so we can write it down as 510.3=100%.
4. We know, that x is 75.3% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=75.3%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 510.3=100%
2) x=75.3%
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:
510.3/x=100%/75.3%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 75.3% of 510.3

510.3/x=100/75.3
(510.3/x)*x=(100/75.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
510.3=1.32802124834*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.32802124834) to get x
510.3/1.32802124834=x
384.2559=x
x=384.2559

now we have:
75.3% of 510.3=384.2559
