1362.22 is what percent of 8009.04 - 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 8009.04 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 8009.04, so we can write it down as 100%=8009.04.
4. We know, that x% equals 1362.22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1362.22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=8009.04
2) x%=1362.22
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%=8009.04/1362.22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1362.22 is what percent of 8009.04

100%/x%=8009.04/1362.22
(100/x)*x=(8009.04/1362.22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.8794027396456*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.8794027396456) to get x
100/5.8794027396456=x
17.008530360692=x
x=17.008530360692

now we have:
1362.22 is 17.008530360692% of 8009.04
