25.08 is what percent of 1450 - 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 1450 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 1450, so we can write it down as 100%=1450.
4. We know, that x% equals 25.08 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=25.08.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1450
2) x%=25.08
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%=1450/25.08
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 25.08 is what percent of 1450

100%/x%=1450/25.08
(100/x)*x=(1450/25.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=57.814992025518*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (57.814992025518) to get x
100/57.814992025518=x
1.7296551724138=x
x=1.7296551724138

now we have:
25.08 is 1.7296551724138% of 1450
