693.86 is what percent of 745 - 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 745 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 745, so we can write it down as 100%=745.
4. We know, that x% equals 693.86 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=693.86.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=745
2) x%=693.86
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%=745/693.86
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 693.86 is what percent of 745

100%/x%=745/693.86
(100/x)*x=(745/693.86)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0737036289741*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0737036289741) to get x
100/1.0737036289741=x
93.135570469799=x
x=93.135570469799

now we have:
693.86 is 93.135570469799% of 745
