176.75 is what percent of 4744 - 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 4744 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 4744, so we can write it down as 100%=4744.
4. We know, that x% equals 176.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=176.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4744
2) x%=176.75
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%=4744/176.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 176.75 is what percent of 4744

100%/x%=4744/176.75
(100/x)*x=(4744/176.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=26.840169731259*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (26.840169731259) to get x
100/26.840169731259=x
3.7257588532884=x
x=3.7257588532884

now we have:
176.75 is 3.7257588532884% of 4744
