6885.15 is what percent of 7490 - 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 7490 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 7490, so we can write it down as 100%=7490.
4. We know, that x% equals 6885.15 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6885.15.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7490
2) x%=6885.15
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%=7490/6885.15
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6885.15 is what percent of 7490

100%/x%=7490/6885.15
(100/x)*x=(7490/6885.15)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0878484855087*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0878484855087) to get x
100/1.0878484855087=x
91.924566088117=x
x=91.924566088117

now we have:
