1.64 is what percent of 1.75 - 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 1.75 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 1.75, so we can write it down as 100%=1.75.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.64 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.64.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1.75
2) x%=1.64
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%=1.75/1.64
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.64 is what percent of 1.75

100%/x%=1.75/1.64
(100/x)*x=(1.75/1.64)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0670731707317*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0670731707317) to get x
100/1.0670731707317=x
93.714285714286=x
x=93.714285714286

now we have:
1.64 is 93.714285714286% of 1.75
