2331.69 is what percent of 5400 - 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 5400 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 5400, so we can write it down as 100%=5400.
4. We know, that x% equals 2331.69 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2331.69.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5400
2) x%=2331.69
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%=5400/2331.69
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2331.69 is what percent of 5400

100%/x%=5400/2331.69
(100/x)*x=(5400/2331.69)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.3159167813903*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.3159167813903) to get x
100/2.3159167813903=x
43.179444444444=x
x=43.179444444444

now we have:
2331.69 is 43.179444444444% of 5400
