13.73 is what percent of 183.34 - 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 183.34 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 183.34, so we can write it down as 100%=183.34.
4. We know, that x% equals 13.73 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=13.73.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=183.34
2) x%=13.73
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%=183.34/13.73
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 13.73 is what percent of 183.34

100%/x%=183.34/13.73
(100/x)*x=(183.34/13.73)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=13.353241077932*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.353241077932) to get x
100/13.353241077932=x
7.488818588415=x
x=7.488818588415

now we have:
13.73 is 7.488818588415% of 183.34
