1027.05 is what percent of 1374.59 - 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 1374.59 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 1374.59, so we can write it down as 100%=1374.59.
4. We know, that x% equals 1027.05 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1027.05.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1374.59
2) x%=1027.05
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%=1374.59/1027.05
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1027.05 is what percent of 1374.59

100%/x%=1374.59/1027.05
(100/x)*x=(1374.59/1027.05)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3383866413514*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3383866413514) to get x
100/1.3383866413514=x
74.716824653169=x
x=74.716824653169

now we have:
