704.35 is what percent of 745 - 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 745 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 745, so we can write it down as 100%=745.
4. We know, that x% equals 704.35 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=704.35.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=745
2) x%=704.35
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%=745/704.35
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 704.35 is what percent of 745

100%/x%=745/704.35
(100/x)*x=(745/704.35)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0577127848371*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0577127848371) to get x
100/1.0577127848371=x
94.543624161074=x
x=94.543624161074

now we have:
704.35 is 94.543624161074% of 745
