60.76 is what percent of 15.43 - 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 15.43 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 15.43, so we can write it down as 100%=15.43.
4. We know, that x% equals 60.76 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=60.76.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=15.43
2) x%=60.76
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%=15.43/60.76
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 60.76 is what percent of 15.43

100%/x%=15.43/60.76
(100/x)*x=(15.43/60.76)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.25394996708361*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.25394996708361) to get x
100/0.25394996708361=x
393.77835385612=x
x=393.77835385612

now we have:
60.76 is 393.77835385612% of 15.43
