2.29 is what percent of 7.63 - 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 7.63 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 7.63, so we can write it down as 100%=7.63.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.29 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.29.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7.63
2) x%=2.29
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%=7.63/2.29
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.29 is what percent of 7.63

100%/x%=7.63/2.29
(100/x)*x=(7.63/2.29)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.3318777292576*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.3318777292576) to get x
100/3.3318777292576=x
30.013106159895=x
x=30.013106159895

now we have:
2.29 is 30.013106159895% of 7.63
