77.76 is what percent of 765000 - 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 765000 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 765000, so we can write it down as 100%=765000.
4. We know, that x% equals 77.76 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=77.76.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=765000
2) x%=77.76
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%=765000/77.76
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 77.76 is what percent of 765000

100%/x%=765000/77.76
(100/x)*x=(765000/77.76)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9837.962962963*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9837.962962963) to get x
100/9837.962962963=x
0.010164705882353=x
x=0.010164705882353

now we have:
77.76 is 0.010164705882353% of 765000
