1.04 is what percent of 135.864 - 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 135.864 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 135.864, so we can write it down as 100%=135.864.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.04 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.04.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=135.864
2) x%=1.04
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%=135.864/1.04
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.04 is what percent of 135.864

100%/x%=135.864/1.04
(100/x)*x=(135.864/1.04)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=130.63846153846*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (130.63846153846) to get x
100/130.63846153846=x
0.76547135370665=x
x=0.76547135370665

now we have:
1.04 is 0.76547135370665% of 135.864
