1133.75 is what percent of 4535 - 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 4535 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 4535, so we can write it down as 100%=4535.
4. We know, that x% equals 1133.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1133.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4535
2) x%=1133.75
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%=4535/1133.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1133.75 is what percent of 4535

100%/x%=4535/1133.75
(100/x)*x=(4535/1133.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4) to get x
100/4=x
25=x
x=25

now we have:
1133.75 is 25% of 4535
