7.65 is what percent of 8.15 - 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 8.15 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 8.15, so we can write it down as 100%=8.15.
4. We know, that x% equals 7.65 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7.65.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=8.15
2) x%=7.65
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%=8.15/7.65
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7.65 is what percent of 8.15

100%/x%=8.15/7.65
(100/x)*x=(8.15/7.65)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0653594771242*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0653594771242) to get x
100/1.0653594771242=x
93.865030674847=x
x=93.865030674847

now we have:
7.65 is 93.865030674847% of 8.15
