1784.65 is what percent of 7500 - 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 7500 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 7500, so we can write it down as 100%=7500.
4. We know, that x% equals 1784.65 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1784.65.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7500
2) x%=1784.65
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%=7500/1784.65
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1784.65 is what percent of 7500

100%/x%=7500/1784.65
(100/x)*x=(7500/1784.65)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.2025046927969*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.2025046927969) to get x
100/4.2025046927969=x
23.795333333333=x
x=23.795333333333

now we have:
1784.65 is 23.795333333333% of 7500
