76.93 is what percent of 135 - 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 135 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 135, so we can write it down as 100%=135.
4. We know, that x% equals 76.93 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=76.93.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=135
2) x%=76.93
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%=135/76.93
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 76.93 is what percent of 135

100%/x%=135/76.93
(100/x)*x=(135/76.93)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.7548420642142*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.7548420642142) to get x
100/1.7548420642142=x
56.985185185185=x
x=56.985185185185

now we have:
76.93 is 56.985185185185% of 135
