0.76 is what percent of 1481.2 - 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 1481.2 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 1481.2, so we can write it down as 100%=1481.2.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.76 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.76.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1481.2
2) x%=0.76
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%=1481.2/0.76
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.76 is what percent of 1481.2

100%/x%=1481.2/0.76
(100/x)*x=(1481.2/0.76)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1948.9473684211*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1948.9473684211) to get x
100/1948.9473684211=x
0.051309748852282=x
x=0.051309748852282

now we have:
0.76 is 0.051309748852282% of 1481.2
