650.1 is what percent of 1013.8 - 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 1013.8 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 1013.8, so we can write it down as 100%=1013.8.
4. We know, that x% equals 650.1 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=650.1.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1013.8
2) x%=650.1
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%=1013.8/650.1
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 650.1 is what percent of 1013.8

100%/x%=1013.8/650.1
(100/x)*x=(1013.8/650.1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.5594523919397*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.5594523919397) to get x
100/1.5594523919397=x
64.125073979089=x
x=64.125073979089

now we have:
650.1 is 64.125073979089% of 1013.8
