What is 0.972 percent of 741.39 - 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 741.39 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 741.39 is 100%, so we can write it down as 741.39=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.972% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.972%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 741.39=100%
2) x=0.972%
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:
741.39/x=100%/0.972%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 0.972% of 741.39

741.39/x=100/0.972
(741.39/x)*x=(100/0.972)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
741.39=102.88065843621*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (102.88065843621) to get x
741.39/102.88065843621=x
7.2063108=x
x=7.2063108

now we have:
