108.03 is what percent of 1490 - 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 1490 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 1490, so we can write it down as 100%=1490.
4. We know, that x% equals 108.03 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=108.03.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1490
2) x%=108.03
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%=1490/108.03
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 108.03 is what percent of 1490

100%/x%=1490/108.03
(100/x)*x=(1490/108.03)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=13.792465056003*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.792465056003) to get x
100/13.792465056003=x
7.2503355704698=x
x=7.2503355704698

now we have:
108.03 is 7.2503355704698% of 1490
