326.89 is what percent of 658.67 - 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 658.67 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 658.67, so we can write it down as 100%=658.67.
4. We know, that x% equals 326.89 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=326.89.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=658.67
2) x%=326.89
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%=658.67/326.89
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 326.89 is what percent of 658.67

100%/x%=658.67/326.89
(100/x)*x=(658.67/326.89)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.0149591605739*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.0149591605739) to get x
100/2.0149591605739=x
49.628797425114=x
x=49.628797425114

now we have:
