70.2 is what percent of 93.499 - 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 93.499 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 93.499, so we can write it down as 100%=93.499.
4. We know, that x% equals 70.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=70.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=93.499
2) x%=70.2
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%=93.499/70.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 70.2 is what percent of 93.499

100%/x%=93.499/70.2
(100/x)*x=(93.499/70.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3318945868946*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3318945868946) to get x
100/1.3318945868946=x
75.081016909272=x
x=75.081016909272

now we have:
70.2 is 75.081016909272% of 93.499
