69.95 is what percent of 77.1 - 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 77.1 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 77.1, so we can write it down as 100%=77.1.
4. We know, that x% equals 69.95 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=69.95.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=77.1
2) x%=69.95
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%=77.1/69.95
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 69.95 is what percent of 77.1

100%/x%=77.1/69.95
(100/x)*x=(77.1/69.95)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1022158684775*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1022158684775) to get x
100/1.1022158684775=x
90.726329442283=x
x=90.726329442283

now we have:
69.95 is 90.726329442283% of 77.1
