3.75 is what percent of 40112500 - 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 40112500 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 40112500, so we can write it down as 100%=40112500.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=40112500
2) x%=3.75
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%=40112500/3.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.75 is what percent of 40112500

100%/x%=40112500/3.75
(100/x)*x=(40112500/3.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10696666.666667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10696666.666667) to get x
100/10696666.666667=x
9.3487067622312E-6=x
x=9.3487067622312E-6

now we have:
3.75 is 9.3487067622312E-6% of 40112500
