2739.29 is what percent of 30000 - 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 30000 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 30000, so we can write it down as 100%=30000.
4. We know, that x% equals 2739.29 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2739.29.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=30000
2) x%=2739.29
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%=30000/2739.29
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2739.29 is what percent of 30000

100%/x%=30000/2739.29
(100/x)*x=(30000/2739.29)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.951742969894*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.951742969894) to get x
100/10.951742969894=x
9.1309666666667=x
x=9.1309666666667

now we have:
2739.29 is 9.1309666666667% of 30000
