64.96 is what percent of 4479.65 - 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 4479.65 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 4479.65, so we can write it down as 100%=4479.65.
4. We know, that x% equals 64.96 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=64.96.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4479.65
2) x%=64.96
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%=4479.65/64.96
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 64.96 is what percent of 4479.65

100%/x%=4479.65/64.96
(100/x)*x=(4479.65/64.96)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=68.960129310345*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (68.960129310345) to get x
100/68.960129310345=x
1.4501132901008=x
x=1.4501132901008

now we have:
