7708.08 is what percent of 5405 - 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 5405 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 5405, so we can write it down as 100%=5405.
4. We know, that x% equals 7708.08 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7708.08.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5405
2) x%=7708.08
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%=5405/7708.08
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7708.08 is what percent of 5405

100%/x%=5405/7708.08
(100/x)*x=(5405/7708.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.70121223443452*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.70121223443452) to get x
100/0.70121223443452=x
142.61017576318=x
x=142.61017576318

now we have:
7708.08 is 142.61017576318% of 5405
