1.3 is what percent of 5.264 - 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 5.264 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 5.264, so we can write it down as 100%=5.264.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5.264
2) x%=1.3
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%=5.264/1.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.3 is what percent of 5.264

100%/x%=5.264/1.3
(100/x)*x=(5.264/1.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.0492307692308*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.0492307692308) to get x
100/4.0492307692308=x
24.696048632219=x
x=24.696048632219

now we have:
1.3 is 24.696048632219% of 5.264
