7.33 is what percent of 656 - 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 656 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 656, so we can write it down as 100%=656.
4. We know, that x% equals 7.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=656
2) x%=7.33
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%=656/7.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7.33 is what percent of 656

100%/x%=656/7.33
(100/x)*x=(656/7.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=89.495225102319*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (89.495225102319) to get x
100/89.495225102319=x
1.1173780487805=x
x=1.1173780487805

now we have:
7.33 is 1.1173780487805% of 656
