765.94 is what percent of 580.25 - 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 580.25 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 580.25, so we can write it down as 100%=580.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 765.94 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=765.94.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=580.25
2) x%=765.94
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%=580.25/765.94
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 765.94 is what percent of 580.25

100%/x%=580.25/765.94
(100/x)*x=(580.25/765.94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.75756586677808*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.75756586677808) to get x
100/0.75756586677808=x
132.00172339509=x
x=132.00172339509

now we have:
