756.28 is what percent of 1.184 - 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 1.184 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 1.184, so we can write it down as 100%=1.184.
4. We know, that x% equals 756.28 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=756.28.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1.184
2) x%=756.28
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%=1.184/756.28
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 756.28 is what percent of 1.184

100%/x%=1.184/756.28
(100/x)*x=(1.184/756.28)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.0015655577299413*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0015655577299413) to get x
100/0.0015655577299413=x
63875=x
x=63875

now we have:
756.28 is 63875% of 1.184
