88.08 is what percent of 1443.08 - 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 1443.08 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 1443.08, so we can write it down as 100%=1443.08.
4. We know, that x% equals 88.08 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=88.08.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1443.08
2) x%=88.08
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%=1443.08/88.08
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 88.08 is what percent of 1443.08

100%/x%=1443.08/88.08
(100/x)*x=(1443.08/88.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=16.383742052679*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16.383742052679) to get x
100/16.383742052679=x
6.103611719378=x
x=6.103611719378

now we have:
