794.99 is what percent of 1360 - 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 1360 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 1360, so we can write it down as 100%=1360.
4. We know, that x% equals 794.99 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=794.99.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1360
2) x%=794.99
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%=1360/794.99
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 794.99 is what percent of 1360

100%/x%=1360/794.99
(100/x)*x=(1360/794.99)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.7107133423062*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.7107133423062) to get x
100/1.7107133423062=x
58.455147058824=x
x=58.455147058824

now we have:
794.99 is 58.455147058824% of 1360
