143.6 is what percent of 750.35 - 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 750.35 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 750.35, so we can write it down as 100%=750.35.
4. We know, that x% equals 143.6 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=143.6.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=750.35
2) x%=143.6
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%=750.35/143.6
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 143.6 is what percent of 750.35

100%/x%=750.35/143.6
(100/x)*x=(750.35/143.6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.225278551532*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.225278551532) to get x
100/5.225278551532=x
19.137735723329=x
x=19.137735723329

now we have:
143.6 is 19.137735723329% of 750.35
