1.55 is what percent of 207.97 - 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 207.97 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 207.97, so we can write it down as 100%=207.97.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.55 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.55.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=207.97
2) x%=1.55
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%=207.97/1.55
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.55 is what percent of 207.97

100%/x%=207.97/1.55
(100/x)*x=(207.97/1.55)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=134.17419354839*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (134.17419354839) to get x
100/134.17419354839=x
0.74529980285618=x
x=0.74529980285618

now we have:
1.55 is 0.74529980285618% of 207.97
