1626.08 is what percent of 1740 - 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 1740 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 1740, so we can write it down as 100%=1740.
4. We know, that x% equals 1626.08 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1626.08.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1740
2) x%=1626.08
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%=1740/1626.08
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1626.08 is what percent of 1740

100%/x%=1740/1626.08
(100/x)*x=(1740/1626.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0700580537243*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0700580537243) to get x
100/1.0700580537243=x
93.452873563218=x
x=93.452873563218

now we have:
1626.08 is 93.452873563218% of 1740
