7297.8 is what percent of 7001.8 - 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 7001.8 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 7001.8, so we can write it down as 100%=7001.8.
4. We know, that x% equals 7297.8 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7297.8.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7001.8
2) x%=7297.8
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%=7001.8/7297.8
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7297.8 is what percent of 7001.8

100%/x%=7001.8/7297.8
(100/x)*x=(7001.8/7297.8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.959439831182*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.959439831182) to get x
100/0.959439831182=x
104.22748436116=x
x=104.22748436116

now we have:
7297.8 is 104.22748436116% of 7001.8
