303.81 is what percent of 1000 - 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 1000 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 1000, so we can write it down as 100%=1000.
4. We know, that x% equals 303.81 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=303.81.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1000
2) x%=303.81
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%=1000/303.81
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 303.81 is what percent of 1000

100%/x%=1000/303.81
(100/x)*x=(1000/303.81)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.2915308910174*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.2915308910174) to get x
100/3.2915308910174=x
30.381=x
x=30.381

now we have:
303.81 is 30.381% of 1000
