1.827 is what percent of 7 - 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 7 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 7, so we can write it down as 100%=7.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.827 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.827.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7
2) x%=1.827
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%=7/1.827
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.827 is what percent of 7

100%/x%=7/1.827
(100/x)*x=(7/1.827)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.8314176245211*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.8314176245211) to get x
100/3.8314176245211=x
26.1=x
x=26.1

now we have:
1.827 is 26.1% of 7
