722.5 is what percent of 7225.02 - 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 7225.02 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 7225.02, so we can write it down as 100%=7225.02.
4. We know, that x% equals 722.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=722.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7225.02
2) x%=722.5
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%=7225.02/722.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 722.5 is what percent of 7225.02

100%/x%=7225.02/722.5
(100/x)*x=(7225.02/722.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.000027681661*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.000027681661) to get x
100/10.000027681661=x
9.9999723184157=x
x=9.9999723184157

now we have:
722.5 is 9.9999723184157% of 7225.02
