90.4 is what percent of 6327.62 - 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 6327.62 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 6327.62, so we can write it down as 100%=6327.62.
4. We know, that x% equals 90.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=90.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6327.62
2) x%=90.4
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%=6327.62/90.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 90.4 is what percent of 6327.62

100%/x%=6327.62/90.4
(100/x)*x=(6327.62/90.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=69.995796460177*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (69.995796460177) to get x
100/69.995796460177=x
1.4286572202503=x
x=1.4286572202503

now we have:
