19.94 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 19.94 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=19.94.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1375
2) x%=19.94
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%=1375/19.94
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 19.94 is what percent of 1375

100%/x%=1375/19.94
(100/x)*x=(1375/19.94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=68.956870611835*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (68.956870611835) to get x
100/68.956870611835=x
1.4501818181818=x
x=1.4501818181818

now we have:
19.94 is 1.4501818181818% of 1375
