1087.44 is what percent of 1570 - 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 1570 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 1570, so we can write it down as 100%=1570.
4. We know, that x% equals 1087.44 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1087.44.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1570
2) x%=1087.44
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%=1570/1087.44
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1087.44 is what percent of 1570

100%/x%=1570/1087.44
(100/x)*x=(1570/1087.44)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.4437578165232*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4437578165232) to get x
100/1.4437578165232=x
69.263694267516=x
x=69.263694267516

now we have:
1087.44 is 69.263694267516% of 1570
