1400.04 is what percent of 6943.63 - 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 6943.63 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 6943.63, so we can write it down as 100%=6943.63.
4. We know, that x% equals 1400.04 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1400.04.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6943.63
2) x%=1400.04
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%=6943.63/1400.04
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1400.04 is what percent of 6943.63

100%/x%=6943.63/1400.04
(100/x)*x=(6943.63/1400.04)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.9595940115997*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.9595940115997) to get x
100/4.9595940115997=x
20.162940709686=x
x=20.162940709686

now we have:
