78.67 is what percent of 5363.06 - 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 5363.06 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 5363.06, so we can write it down as 100%=5363.06.
4. We know, that x% equals 78.67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=78.67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5363.06
2) x%=78.67
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%=5363.06/78.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 78.67 is what percent of 5363.06

100%/x%=5363.06/78.67
(100/x)*x=(5363.06/78.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=68.171602898182*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (68.171602898182) to get x
100/68.171602898182=x
1.4668864416956=x
x=1.4668864416956

now we have:
