0.07 is what percent of 5.28 - 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 5.28 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 5.28, so we can write it down as 100%=5.28.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.07 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.07.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5.28
2) x%=0.07
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%=5.28/0.07
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.07 is what percent of 5.28

100%/x%=5.28/0.07
(100/x)*x=(5.28/0.07)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=75.428571428571*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (75.428571428571) to get x
100/75.428571428571=x
1.3257575757576=x
x=1.3257575757576

now we have:
0.07 is 1.3257575757576% of 5.28
