5468.4 is what percent of 7110 - 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 7110 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 7110, so we can write it down as 100%=7110.
4. We know, that x% equals 5468.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=5468.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7110
2) x%=5468.4
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%=7110/5468.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 5468.4 is what percent of 7110

100%/x%=7110/5468.4
(100/x)*x=(7110/5468.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3001974983542*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3001974983542) to get x
100/1.3001974983542=x
76.911392405063=x
x=76.911392405063

now we have:
5468.4 is 76.911392405063% of 7110
