529.19 is what percent of 545 - 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 545 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 545, so we can write it down as 100%=545.
4. We know, that x% equals 529.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=529.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=545
2) x%=529.19
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%=545/529.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 529.19 is what percent of 545

100%/x%=545/529.19
(100/x)*x=(545/529.19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0298758479941*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0298758479941) to get x
100/1.0298758479941=x
97.099082568807=x
x=97.099082568807

now we have:
529.19 is 97.099082568807% of 545
