566.79 is what percent of 631 - 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 631 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 631, so we can write it down as 100%=631.
4. We know, that x% equals 566.79 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=566.79.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=631
2) x%=566.79
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%=631/566.79
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 566.79 is what percent of 631

100%/x%=631/566.79
(100/x)*x=(631/566.79)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1132871081*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1132871081) to get x
100/1.1132871081=x
89.824088748019=x
x=89.824088748019

now we have:
566.79 is 89.824088748019% of 631
