3.25 is what percent of 3954.93 - 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 3954.93 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 3954.93, so we can write it down as 100%=3954.93.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3954.93
2) x%=3.25
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%=3954.93/3.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.25 is what percent of 3954.93

100%/x%=3954.93/3.25
(100/x)*x=(3954.93/3.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1216.9015384615*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1216.9015384615) to get x
100/1216.9015384615=x
0.082175917146448=x
x=0.082175917146448

now we have:
