81.65 is what percent of 69.15 - 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 69.15 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 69.15, so we can write it down as 100%=69.15.
4. We know, that x% equals 81.65 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=81.65.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=69.15
2) x%=81.65
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%=69.15/81.65
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 81.65 is what percent of 69.15

100%/x%=69.15/81.65
(100/x)*x=(69.15/81.65)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.84690753214942*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.84690753214942) to get x
100/0.84690753214942=x
118.07664497469=x
x=118.07664497469

now we have:
81.65 is 118.07664497469% of 69.15
