63.63 is what percent of 1125 - 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 1125 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 1125, so we can write it down as 100%=1125.
4. We know, that x% equals 63.63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=63.63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1125
2) x%=63.63
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%=1125/63.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 63.63 is what percent of 1125

100%/x%=1125/63.63
(100/x)*x=(1125/63.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=17.680339462518*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (17.680339462518) to get x
100/17.680339462518=x
5.656=x
x=5.656

now we have:
63.63 is 5.656% of 1125
