104.7 is what percent of 4160.75 - 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 4160.75 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 4160.75, so we can write it down as 100%=4160.75.
4. We know, that x% equals 104.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=104.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4160.75
2) x%=104.7
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%=4160.75/104.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 104.7 is what percent of 4160.75

100%/x%=4160.75/104.7
(100/x)*x=(4160.75/104.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=39.739732569245*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (39.739732569245) to get x
100/39.739732569245=x
2.516373250015=x
x=2.516373250015

now we have:
