1037.99 is what percent of 14000 - 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 14000 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 14000, so we can write it down as 100%=14000.
4. We know, that x% equals 1037.99 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1037.99.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=14000
2) x%=1037.99
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%=14000/1037.99
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1037.99 is what percent of 14000

100%/x%=14000/1037.99
(100/x)*x=(14000/1037.99)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=13.487605853621*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.487605853621) to get x
100/13.487605853621=x
7.4142142857143=x
x=7.4142142857143

now we have:
1037.99 is 7.4142142857143% of 14000
