7.63 is what percent of 1400 - 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 1400 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 1400, so we can write it down as 100%=1400.
4. We know, that x% equals 7.63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7.63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1400
2) x%=7.63
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%=1400/7.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7.63 is what percent of 1400

100%/x%=1400/7.63
(100/x)*x=(1400/7.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=183.48623853211*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (183.48623853211) to get x
100/183.48623853211=x
0.545=x
x=0.545

now we have:
7.63 is 0.545% of 1400
