114.47 is what percent of 2749 - 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 2749 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 2749, so we can write it down as 100%=2749.
4. We know, that x% equals 114.47 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=114.47.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2749
2) x%=114.47
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%=2749/114.47
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 114.47 is what percent of 2749

100%/x%=2749/114.47
(100/x)*x=(2749/114.47)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=24.015025770944*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (24.015025770944) to get x
100/24.015025770944=x
4.1640596580575=x
x=4.1640596580575

now we have:
114.47 is 4.1640596580575% of 2749
