What is 75.25 percent of 7.5 - 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 7.5 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 7.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 7.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 75.25% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=75.25%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 7.5=100%
2) x=75.25%
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:
7.5/x=100%/75.25%
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 75.25% of 7.5

7.5/x=100/75.25
(7.5/x)*x=(100/75.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
7.5=1.328903654485*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.328903654485) to get x
7.5/1.328903654485=x
5.64375=x
x=5.64375

now we have:
75.25% of 7.5=5.64375
