15.06 is what percent of 768.29 - 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 768.29 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 768.29, so we can write it down as 100%=768.29.
4. We know, that x% equals 15.06 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=15.06.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=768.29
2) x%=15.06
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%=768.29/15.06
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 15.06 is what percent of 768.29

100%/x%=768.29/15.06
(100/x)*x=(768.29/15.06)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=51.015272244356*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (51.015272244356) to get x
100/51.015272244356=x
1.960197321324=x
x=1.960197321324

now we have:
15.06 is 1.960197321324% of 768.29
