7.06 is what percent of 39 - 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 39 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 39, so we can write it down as 100%=39.
4. We know, that x% equals 7.06 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7.06.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=39
2) x%=7.06
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%=39/7.06
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7.06 is what percent of 39

100%/x%=39/7.06
(100/x)*x=(39/7.06)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.5240793201133*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.5240793201133) to get x
100/5.5240793201133=x
18.102564102564=x
x=18.102564102564

now we have:
7.06 is 18.102564102564% of 39
