696.51 is what percent of 1566 - 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 1566 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 1566, so we can write it down as 100%=1566.
4. We know, that x% equals 696.51 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=696.51.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1566
2) x%=696.51
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%=1566/696.51
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 696.51 is what percent of 1566

100%/x%=1566/696.51
(100/x)*x=(1566/696.51)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.248352500323*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.248352500323) to get x
100/2.248352500323=x
44.477011494253=x
x=44.477011494253

now we have:
696.51 is 44.477011494253% of 1566
