753.48 is what percent of 925 - 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 925 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 925, so we can write it down as 100%=925.
4. We know, that x% equals 753.48 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=753.48.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=925
2) x%=753.48
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%=925/753.48
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 753.48 is what percent of 925

100%/x%=925/753.48
(100/x)*x=(925/753.48)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.2276370972023*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2276370972023) to get x
100/1.2276370972023=x
81.457297297297=x
x=81.457297297297

now we have:
753.48 is 81.457297297297% of 925
