7 is what percent of 7269 - 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 7269 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 7269, so we can write it down as 100%=7269.
4. We know, that x% equals 7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7269
2) x%=7
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%=7269/7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7 is what percent of 7269

100%/x%=7269/7
(100/x)*x=(7269/7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1038.4285714286*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1038.4285714286) to get x
100/1038.4285714286=x
0.096299353418627=x
x=0.096299353418627

now we have:
7 is 0.096299353418627% of 7269
