60.61 is what percent of 0.752 - 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 0.752 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 0.752, so we can write it down as 100%=0.752.
4. We know, that x% equals 60.61 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=60.61.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=0.752
2) x%=60.61
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%=0.752/60.61
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 60.61 is what percent of 0.752

100%/x%=0.752/60.61
(100/x)*x=(0.752/60.61)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.01240719353242*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.01240719353242) to get x
100/0.01240719353242=x
8059.8404255319=x
x=8059.8404255319

now we have:
60.61 is 8059.8404255319% of 0.752
