6.87 is what percent of 673.08 - 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 673.08 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 673.08, so we can write it down as 100%=673.08.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.87 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.87.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=673.08
2) x%=6.87
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%=673.08/6.87
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.87 is what percent of 673.08

100%/x%=673.08/6.87
(100/x)*x=(673.08/6.87)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=97.973799126638*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (97.973799126638) to get x
100/97.973799126638=x
1.0206810483152=x
x=1.0206810483152

now we have:
6.87 is 1.0206810483152% of 673.08
