113.95 is what percent of 703 - 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 703 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 703, so we can write it down as 100%=703.
4. We know, that x% equals 113.95 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=113.95.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=703
2) x%=113.95
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%=703/113.95
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 113.95 is what percent of 703

100%/x%=703/113.95
(100/x)*x=(703/113.95)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=6.1693725318122*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.1693725318122) to get x
100/6.1693725318122=x
16.209103840683=x
x=16.209103840683

now we have:
113.95 is 16.209103840683% of 703
