1.675 is what percent of 2 - 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 2 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 2, so we can write it down as 100%=2.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.675 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.675.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2
2) x%=1.675
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%=2/1.675
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.675 is what percent of 2

100%/x%=2/1.675
(100/x)*x=(2/1.675)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1940298507463*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1940298507463) to get x
100/1.1940298507463=x
83.75=x
x=83.75

now we have:
1.675 is 83.75% of 2
