175.83 is what percent of 813.65 - 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 813.65 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 813.65, so we can write it down as 100%=813.65.
4. We know, that x% equals 175.83 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=175.83.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=813.65
2) x%=175.83
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%=813.65/175.83
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 175.83 is what percent of 813.65

100%/x%=813.65/175.83
(100/x)*x=(813.65/175.83)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.6274810896889*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.6274810896889) to get x
100/4.6274810896889=x
21.610028882198=x
x=21.610028882198

now we have:
