717.12 is what percent of 1.12 - 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 1.12 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 1.12, so we can write it down as 100%=1.12.
4. We know, that x% equals 717.12 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=717.12.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1.12
2) x%=717.12
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%=1.12/717.12
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 717.12 is what percent of 1.12

100%/x%=1.12/717.12
(100/x)*x=(1.12/717.12)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.001561802766622*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.001561802766622) to get x
100/0.001561802766622=x
64028.571428571=x
x=64028.571428571

now we have:
717.12 is 64028.571428571% of 1.12
