1.75 is what percent of 9.94 - 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 9.94 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 9.94, so we can write it down as 100%=9.94.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9.94
2) x%=1.75
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%=9.94/1.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.75 is what percent of 9.94

100%/x%=9.94/1.75
(100/x)*x=(9.94/1.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.68*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.68) to get x
100/5.68=x
17.605633802817=x
x=17.605633802817

now we have:
1.75 is 17.605633802817% of 9.94
