7.43 is what percent of 11.64 - 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 11.64 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 11.64, so we can write it down as 100%=11.64.
4. We know, that x% equals 7.43 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7.43.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=11.64
2) x%=7.43
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%=11.64/7.43
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7.43 is what percent of 11.64

100%/x%=11.64/7.43
(100/x)*x=(11.64/7.43)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.5666218034993*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.5666218034993) to get x
100/1.5666218034993=x
63.831615120275=x
x=63.831615120275

now we have:
7.43 is 63.831615120275% of 11.64
