60.75 is what percent of 1126 - 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 1126 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 1126, so we can write it down as 100%=1126.
4. We know, that x% equals 60.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=60.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1126
2) x%=60.75
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%=1126/60.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 60.75 is what percent of 1126

100%/x%=1126/60.75
(100/x)*x=(1126/60.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=18.534979423868*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (18.534979423868) to get x
100/18.534979423868=x
5.3952042628774=x
x=5.3952042628774

now we have:
60.75 is 5.3952042628774% of 1126
