616.69 is what percent of 7150 - 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 7150 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 7150, so we can write it down as 100%=7150.
4. We know, that x% equals 616.69 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=616.69.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7150
2) x%=616.69
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%=7150/616.69
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 616.69 is what percent of 7150

100%/x%=7150/616.69
(100/x)*x=(7150/616.69)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=11.594155896804*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11.594155896804) to get x
100/11.594155896804=x
8.625034965035=x
x=8.625034965035

now we have:
616.69 is 8.625034965035% of 7150
