0.73 is what percent of 14.53 - 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 14.53 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 14.53, so we can write it down as 100%=14.53.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.73 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.73.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=14.53
2) x%=0.73
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%=14.53/0.73
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.73 is what percent of 14.53

100%/x%=14.53/0.73
(100/x)*x=(14.53/0.73)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=19.904109589041*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (19.904109589041) to get x
100/19.904109589041=x
5.0240880935994=x
x=5.0240880935994

now we have:
0.73 is 5.0240880935994% of 14.53
