70.51 is what percent of 762.22 - 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 762.22 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 762.22, so we can write it down as 100%=762.22.
4. We know, that x% equals 70.51 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=70.51.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=762.22
2) x%=70.51
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%=762.22/70.51
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 70.51 is what percent of 762.22

100%/x%=762.22/70.51
(100/x)*x=(762.22/70.51)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.81009785846*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.81009785846) to get x
100/10.81009785846=x
9.2506100600876=x
x=9.2506100600876

now we have:
70.51 is 9.2506100600876% of 762.22
