2458.22 is what percent of 32.345 - 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 32.345 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 32.345, so we can write it down as 100%=32.345.
4. We know, that x% equals 2458.22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2458.22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=32.345
2) x%=2458.22
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%=32.345/2458.22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2458.22 is what percent of 32.345
