1477.08 is what percent of 6750 - 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 6750 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 6750, so we can write it down as 100%=6750.
4. We know, that x% equals 1477.08 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1477.08.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6750
2) x%=1477.08
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%=6750/1477.08
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1477.08 is what percent of 6750

100%/x%=6750/1477.08
(100/x)*x=(6750/1477.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.5698269558859*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.5698269558859) to get x
100/4.5698269558859=x
21.882666666667=x
x=21.882666666667

now we have:
1477.08 is 21.882666666667% of 6750
