63.75 is what percent of 84.99 - 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 84.99 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 84.99, so we can write it down as 100%=84.99.
4. We know, that x% equals 63.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=63.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=84.99
2) x%=63.75
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%=84.99/63.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 63.75 is what percent of 84.99

100%/x%=84.99/63.75
(100/x)*x=(84.99/63.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3331764705882*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3331764705882) to get x
100/1.3331764705882=x
75.008824567596=x
x=75.008824567596

now we have:
63.75 is 75.008824567596% of 84.99
