6.98 is what percent of 195 - 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 195 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 195, so we can write it down as 100%=195.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.98 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.98.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=195
2) x%=6.98
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%=195/6.98
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.98 is what percent of 195

100%/x%=195/6.98
(100/x)*x=(195/6.98)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=27.936962750716*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (27.936962750716) to get x
100/27.936962750716=x
3.5794871794872=x
x=3.5794871794872

now we have:
6.98 is 3.5794871794872% of 195
