75.51 is what percent of 1190 - 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 1190 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 1190, so we can write it down as 100%=1190.
4. We know, that x% equals 75.51 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=75.51.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1190
2) x%=75.51
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%=1190/75.51
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 75.51 is what percent of 1190

100%/x%=1190/75.51
(100/x)*x=(1190/75.51)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=15.759502052708*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.759502052708) to get x
100/15.759502052708=x
6.3453781512605=x
x=6.3453781512605

now we have:
75.51 is 6.3453781512605% of 1190
