726.25 is what percent of 90000 - 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 90000 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 90000, so we can write it down as 100%=90000.
4. We know, that x% equals 726.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=726.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=90000
2) x%=726.25
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%=90000/726.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 726.25 is what percent of 90000

100%/x%=90000/726.25
(100/x)*x=(90000/726.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=123.92426850258*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (123.92426850258) to get x
100/123.92426850258=x
0.80694444444444=x
x=0.80694444444444

now we have:
726.25 is 0.80694444444444% of 90000
