93.8 is what percent of 7.48 - 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 7.48 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 7.48, so we can write it down as 100%=7.48.
4. We know, that x% equals 93.8 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=93.8.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7.48
2) x%=93.8
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%=7.48/93.8
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 93.8 is what percent of 7.48

100%/x%=7.48/93.8
(100/x)*x=(7.48/93.8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.079744136460554*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.079744136460554) to get x
100/0.079744136460554=x
1254.0106951872=x
x=1254.0106951872

now we have:
93.8 is 1254.0106951872% of 7.48
