69 is what percent of 97.97 - 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 97.97 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 97.97, so we can write it down as 100%=97.97.
4. We know, that x% equals 69 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=69.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=97.97
2) x%=69
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%=97.97/69
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 69 is what percent of 97.97

100%/x%=97.97/69
(100/x)*x=(97.97/69)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.4198550724638*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4198550724638) to get x
100/1.4198550724638=x
70.42972338471=x
x=70.42972338471

now we have:
69 is 70.42972338471% of 97.97
