132.5 is what percent of 4416.67 - 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 4416.67 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 4416.67, so we can write it down as 100%=4416.67.
4. We know, that x% equals 132.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=132.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4416.67
2) x%=132.5
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%=4416.67/132.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 132.5 is what percent of 4416.67

100%/x%=4416.67/132.5
(100/x)*x=(4416.67/132.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=33.333358490566*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (33.333358490566) to get x
100/33.333358490566=x
2.9999977358508=x
x=2.9999977358508

now we have:
