0.73 is what percent of 50.93 - 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 50.93 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 100% equals 50.93, so we can write it down as 100%=50.93.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.73 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.73.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=50.93
2) x%=0.73
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:
100%/x%=50.93/0.73
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.73 is what percent of 50.93

100%/x%=50.93/0.73
(100/x)*x=(50.93/0.73)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=69.767123287671*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (69.767123287671) to get x
100/69.767123287671=x
1.4333398782643=x
x=1.4333398782643

now we have:
0.73 is 1.4333398782643% of 50.93
