160.75 is what percent of 1830 - 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 1830 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 1830, so we can write it down as 100%=1830.
4. We know, that x% equals 160.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=160.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1830
2) x%=160.75
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%=1830/160.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 160.75 is what percent of 1830

100%/x%=1830/160.75
(100/x)*x=(1830/160.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=11.384136858476*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11.384136858476) to get x
100/11.384136858476=x
8.7841530054645=x
x=8.7841530054645

now we have:
160.75 is 8.7841530054645% of 1830
