136.43 is what percent of 750 - 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 750 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 750, so we can write it down as 100%=750.
4. We know, that x% equals 136.43 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=136.43.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=750
2) x%=136.43
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%=750/136.43
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 136.43 is what percent of 750

100%/x%=750/136.43
(100/x)*x=(750/136.43)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.4973246353441*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.4973246353441) to get x
100/5.4973246353441=x
18.190666666667=x
x=18.190666666667

now we have:
136.43 is 18.190666666667% of 750
