First: take 64 and divide it by 414...
(64)/(414)
= approximately 0.1546
Sec: make the decimal a percentage > move the decimal two places to the right...
= 15.46%

I've always found it best to translate these problems from words into math. "is" becomes "=", "of" becomes "multiply", "and" becomes "+", etc. So "64 is what percent of 414" becomes:
64 = x * 414.
Solve this for x by dividing both sides by 414:
64 / 414 = x
Rewriting 64/414 as a decimal (by dividing 64 by 414) then as a percent (slide the decimal over two places) gives you about 15.46% when you round it off.

well 414/100=4.14 which is one percent of 414
then we need to do 64/4.14 to find out how many percent 64 is and the answer is apparently
15.45893719806763285024154589372

Use this formula for these problems
x/100 = is/of
is = 64
of = 414
x/100 = 64 /414
i would reduce here
x/100 = 32/207
cross multiply
207x = 3200
x = 3200/207 about 15.46%

64/414=x/100
414x=6400
