15.13 is what percent of 1375 - 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 1375 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 1375, so we can write it down as 100%=1375.
4. We know, that x% equals 15.13 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=15.13.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1375
2) x%=15.13
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%=1375/15.13
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 15.13 is what percent of 1375

100%/x%=1375/15.13
(100/x)*x=(1375/15.13)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=90.879048248513*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (90.879048248513) to get x
100/90.879048248513=x
1.1003636363636=x
x=1.1003636363636

now we have:
15.13 is 1.1003636363636% of 1375
