7.56 is what percent of 9.99 - 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 9.99 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 9.99, so we can write it down as 100%=9.99.
4. We know, that x% equals 7.56 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7.56.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9.99
2) x%=7.56
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%=9.99/7.56
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7.56 is what percent of 9.99

100%/x%=9.99/7.56
(100/x)*x=(9.99/7.56)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3214285714286*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3214285714286) to get x
100/1.3214285714286=x
75.675675675676=x
x=75.675675675676

now we have:
7.56 is 75.675675675676% of 9.99
