6.83 is what percent of 13.75 - 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 13.75 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 13.75, so we can write it down as 100%=13.75.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.83 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.83.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=13.75
2) x%=6.83
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%=13.75/6.83
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.83 is what percent of 13.75

100%/x%=13.75/6.83
(100/x)*x=(13.75/6.83)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.01317715959*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.01317715959) to get x
100/2.01317715959=x
49.672727272727=x
x=49.672727272727

now we have:
6.83 is 49.672727272727% of 13.75
