11731.25 is what percent of 63000 - 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 63000 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 63000, so we can write it down as 100%=63000.
4. We know, that x% equals 11731.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=11731.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=63000
2) x%=11731.25
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%=63000/11731.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 11731.25 is what percent of 63000

100%/x%=63000/11731.25
(100/x)*x=(63000/11731.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.3702717101758*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.3702717101758) to get x
100/5.3702717101758=x
18.621031746032=x
x=18.621031746032

now we have:
11731.25 is 18.621031746032% of 63000
