1752.75 is what percent of 238.3 - 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 238.3 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 238.3, so we can write it down as 100%=238.3.
4. We know, that x% equals 1752.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1752.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=238.3
2) x%=1752.75
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%=238.3/1752.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1752.75 is what percent of 238.3

100%/x%=238.3/1752.75
(100/x)*x=(238.3/1752.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.13595778063044*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.13595778063044) to get x
100/0.13595778063044=x
735.5224506924=x
x=735.5224506924

now we have:
1752.75 is 735.5224506924% of 238.3
