What is 75 percent of 75.32 - 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 75.32 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 75.32 is 100%, so we can write it down as 75.32=100%.
4. We know, that x is 75% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=75%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 75.32=100%
2) x=75%
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:
75.32/x=100%/75%
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 75% of 75.32

75.32/x=100/75
(75.32/x)*x=(100/75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
75.32=1.3333333333333*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3333333333333) to get x
75.32/1.3333333333333=x
56.49=x
x=56.49

now we have:
75% of 75.32=56.49
