What is 81.59 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 81.59% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=81.59%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 7.5=100%
2) x=81.59%
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%/81.59%
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 81.59% of 7.5

7.5/x=100/81.59
(7.5/x)*x=(100/81.59)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
7.5=1.2256403971075*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2256403971075) to get x
7.5/1.2256403971075=x
6.11925=x
x=6.11925

now we have:
81.59% of 7.5=6.11925
