412.3 is what percent of 102.299 - 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 102.299 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 102.299, so we can write it down as 100%=102.299.
4. We know, that x% equals 412.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=412.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=102.299
2) x%=412.3
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:
100%/x%=102.299/412.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 412.3 is what percent of 102.299

100%/x%=102.299/412.3
(100/x)*x=(102.299/412.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.2481178753335*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.2481178753335) to get x
100/0.2481178753335=x
403.03424275897=x
x=403.03424275897

now we have:
