670.72 is what percent of 720.08 - 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 720.08 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 720.08, so we can write it down as 100%=720.08.
4. We know, that x% equals 670.72 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=670.72.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=720.08
2) x%=670.72
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%=720.08/670.72
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 670.72 is what percent of 720.08

100%/x%=720.08/670.72
(100/x)*x=(720.08/670.72)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0735925572519*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0735925572519) to get x
100/1.0735925572519=x
93.145206088212=x
x=93.145206088212

now we have:
