English = Math symbol "is" means = "%" means 1/100 "of" means multplication So we can write above equation like this: 45.014 = (63.4) 1/100 * (x) In order to solve this, you need to know decimals. How decimal point moves when you multiply with 10s or multiples of 10. Let me know if you have any doubts.
