6.14 is what percent of 79.04 - 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 79.04 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 79.04, so we can write it down as 100%=79.04.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.14 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.14.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=79.04
2) x%=6.14
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%=79.04/6.14
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.14 is what percent of 79.04

100%/x%=79.04/6.14
(100/x)*x=(79.04/6.14)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=12.872964169381*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (12.872964169381) to get x
100/12.872964169381=x
7.7682186234818=x
x=7.7682186234818

now we have:
6.14 is 7.7682186234818% of 79.04
