25.75 is what percent of 27.03 - 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 27.03 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 27.03, so we can write it down as 100%=27.03.
4. We know, that x% equals 25.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=25.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=27.03
2) x%=25.75
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%=27.03/25.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 25.75 is what percent of 27.03

100%/x%=27.03/25.75
(100/x)*x=(27.03/25.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0497087378641*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0497087378641) to get x
100/1.0497087378641=x
95.264520902701=x
x=95.264520902701

now we have:
25.75 is 95.264520902701% of 27.03
