1.49 is what percent of 11 - 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 11 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 11, so we can write it down as 100%=11.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.49 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.49.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=11
2) x%=1.49
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%=11/1.49
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.49 is what percent of 11

100%/x%=11/1.49
(100/x)*x=(11/1.49)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7.3825503355705*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.3825503355705) to get x
100/7.3825503355705=x
13.545454545455=x
x=13.545454545455

now we have:
1.49 is 13.545454545455% of 11
