1.51 is what percent of 13.75 - 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 13.75 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 13.75, so we can write it down as 100%=13.75.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.51 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.51.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=13.75
2) x%=1.51
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%=13.75/1.51
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.51 is what percent of 13.75

100%/x%=13.75/1.51
(100/x)*x=(13.75/1.51)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.1059602649007*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.1059602649007) to get x
100/9.1059602649007=x
10.981818181818=x
x=10.981818181818

now we have:
1.51 is 10.981818181818% of 13.75
