43.7 is what percent of 6.06 - 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 6.06 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 6.06, so we can write it down as 100%=6.06.
4. We know, that x% equals 43.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=43.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6.06
2) x%=43.7
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%=6.06/43.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 43.7 is what percent of 6.06

100%/x%=6.06/43.7
(100/x)*x=(6.06/43.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.13867276887872*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.13867276887872) to get x
100/0.13867276887872=x
721.12211221122=x
x=721.12211221122

now we have:
43.7 is 721.12211221122% of 6.06
