1.03 is what percent of 27.07 - 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 27.07 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 27.07, so we can write it down as 100%=27.07.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.03 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.03.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=27.07
2) x%=1.03
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%=27.07/1.03
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.03 is what percent of 27.07

100%/x%=27.07/1.03
(100/x)*x=(27.07/1.03)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=26.281553398058*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (26.281553398058) to get x
100/26.281553398058=x
3.8049501292944=x
x=3.8049501292944

now we have:
1.03 is 3.8049501292944% of 27.07
