143.3 is what percent of 8322 - 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 8322 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 8322, so we can write it down as 100%=8322.
4. We know, that x% equals 143.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=143.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=8322
2) x%=143.3
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%=8322/143.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 143.3 is what percent of 8322

100%/x%=8322/143.3
(100/x)*x=(8322/143.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=58.073970690858*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (58.073970690858) to get x
100/58.073970690858=x
1.7219418409036=x
x=1.7219418409036

now we have:
143.3 is 1.7219418409036% of 8322
