7 is what percent of 1343 - 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 1343 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 1343, so we can write it down as 100%=1343.
4. We know, that x% equals 7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1343
2) x%=7
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%=1343/7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7 is what percent of 1343

100%/x%=1343/7
(100/x)*x=(1343/7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=191.85714285714*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (191.85714285714) to get x
100/191.85714285714=x
0.52122114668652=x
x=0.52122114668652

now we have:
7 is 0.52122114668652% of 1343
