1504.25 is what percent of 2115.39 - 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 2115.39 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 2115.39, so we can write it down as 100%=2115.39.
4. We know, that x% equals 1504.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1504.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2115.39
2) x%=1504.25
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%=2115.39/1504.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1504.25 is what percent of 2115.39

100%/x%=2115.39/1504.25
(100/x)*x=(2115.39/1504.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.406275552601*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.406275552601) to get x
100/1.406275552601=x
71.109818993188=x
x=71.109818993188

now we have:
