1252.53 is what percent of 73.22 - 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 73.22 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 73.22, so we can write it down as 100%=73.22.
4. We know, that x% equals 1252.53 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1252.53.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=73.22
2) x%=1252.53
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%=73.22/1252.53
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1252.53 is what percent of 73.22

100%/x%=73.22/1252.53
(100/x)*x=(73.22/1252.53)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.058457681652336*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.058457681652336) to get x
100/0.058457681652336=x
1710.6391696258=x
x=1710.6391696258

now we have:
