1.07 is what percent of 73.55 - 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 73.55 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 73.55, so we can write it down as 100%=73.55.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.07 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.07.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=73.55
2) x%=1.07
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%=73.55/1.07
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.07 is what percent of 73.55

100%/x%=73.55/1.07
(100/x)*x=(73.55/1.07)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=68.738317757009*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (68.738317757009) to get x
100/68.738317757009=x
1.4547926580557=x
x=1.4547926580557

now we have:
1.07 is 1.4547926580557% of 73.55
