73.22 is what percent of 969.73 - 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 969.73 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 969.73, so we can write it down as 100%=969.73.
4. We know, that x% equals 73.22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=73.22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=969.73
2) x%=73.22
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%=969.73/73.22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 73.22 is what percent of 969.73

100%/x%=969.73/73.22
(100/x)*x=(969.73/73.22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=13.244059000273*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.244059000273) to get x
100/13.244059000273=x
7.5505553092098=x
x=7.5505553092098

now we have:
