This is pretty basic algebra, just put a variable in the place of the unknown and then solve the equation:

70% times what number equals 100%


70 x A = 100
(70 x A) / 70 = 100 / 70
1 x A = 100 / 70
A = 100 / 70
A = ...well, do the math :-)

The rest of them are all done this way.

Hello,
I have some percentages that I need to get back to the 100.
Example:
70%   times what number equals 100%?
.7 times what number eauals 1.0?
140% times what number equals 100%?
The percentages can be any number.
Any help, I already looked to online math sites?
Thanks,
Jason Bourque
