185.25 is what percent of 195000 - 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 195000 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 195000, so we can write it down as 100%=195000.
4. We know, that x% equals 185.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=185.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=195000
2) x%=185.25
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%=195000/185.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 185.25 is what percent of 195000

100%/x%=195000/185.25
(100/x)*x=(195000/185.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1052.6315789474*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1052.6315789474) to get x
100/1052.6315789474=x
0.095=x
x=0.095

now we have:
