75.61 is what percent of 62.46 - 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 62.46 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 62.46, so we can write it down as 100%=62.46.
4. We know, that x% equals 75.61 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=75.61.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=62.46
2) x%=75.61
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%=62.46/75.61
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 75.61 is what percent of 62.46

100%/x%=62.46/75.61
(100/x)*x=(62.46/75.61)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.82608120618966*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.82608120618966) to get x
100/0.82608120618966=x
121.0534742235=x
x=121.0534742235

now we have:
75.61 is 121.0534742235% of 62.46
