0.35 is what percent of 3.04 - 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 3.04 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 3.04, so we can write it down as 100%=3.04.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.35 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.35.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3.04
2) x%=0.35
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%=3.04/0.35
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.35 is what percent of 3.04

100%/x%=3.04/0.35
(100/x)*x=(3.04/0.35)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=8.6857142857143*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.6857142857143) to get x
100/8.6857142857143=x
11.513157894737=x
x=11.513157894737

now we have:
0.35 is 11.513157894737% of 3.04
