What is 1.363 percent of 7.2 - 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 7.2 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 7.2 is 100%, so we can write it down as 7.2=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.363% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.363%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 7.2=100%
2) x=1.363%
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:
7.2/x=100%/1.363%
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 1.363% of 7.2

7.2/x=100/1.363
(7.2/x)*x=(100/1.363)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
7.2=73.367571533382*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (73.367571533382) to get x
7.2/73.367571533382=x
0.098136=x
x=0.098136

now we have:
1.363% of 7.2=0.098136
