Formula Help

I can't seem to remeber how to do this simple formula...

I know that 661.2 is 11% of X number. How do I figure out what the
total of X is?

Thanks!

Hi, maybe
X=661.2/11*100

661.2 = 11% * X

divide both sides by 11%

661.2 / 11% = X

I got: 6010.909091

In Algebra I they tought me that since 661.2/X = 11% (or 11/100),

X = (661.2 * 100) / 11
