26387.7 is what percent of 110000 - 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 110000 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 110000, so we can write it down as 100%=110000.
4. We know, that x% equals 26387.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=26387.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=110000
2) x%=26387.7
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%=110000/26387.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 26387.7 is what percent of 110000

100%/x%=110000/26387.7
(100/x)*x=(110000/26387.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.1686088594307*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.1686088594307) to get x
100/4.1686088594307=x
23.988818181818=x
x=23.988818181818

now we have:
26387.7 is 23.988818181818% of 110000
