232.35 is what percent of 74880 - 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 74880 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 74880, so we can write it down as 100%=74880.
4. We know, that x% equals 232.35 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=232.35.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=74880
2) x%=232.35
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%=74880/232.35
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 232.35 is what percent of 74880

100%/x%=74880/232.35
(100/x)*x=(74880/232.35)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=322.27243382828*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (322.27243382828) to get x
100/322.27243382828=x
0.31029647435897=x
x=0.31029647435897

now we have:
