93 is 155% of 60
Assume 60 is 100% bc it's the output value.
then assume x is the value we are looking for.
If 100% equals 60, write it down as 100%=60.
x% equals 93 of the output value, so we write it down as x%=93.
Now we have 2equations:
1) 100%=60
2) x%=93
where left sides of both of them have the same units and both right sides have the same units, so now we write-
100%/x%=60/93
Now we solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
100%/x%=60/93
(100/x)*x=(60/93)*x multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.645161290323*x divide both sides of the equation by (0.645161290323) to get x
100/0.645161290323=x
155=x
x=155
SOOOO
93 is 155% of 60

- - Solve:

(100)/(x) = (60)/(93)


(100)/(x) * x = (60)/(93) * x

Now we know that
100 = 0.645161290323 (because thats the value of 60/93)
Now multiply *x


0.645161290323*x


(100)/(0.645161290323) =x

- - Solve for that ^
You get 155

Therefore x=155 and your answer is 155

~Hope this helps!
