31 is what percent of 32773 - 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 32773 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 32773, so we can write it down as 100%=32773.
4. We know, that x% equals 31 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=31.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=32773
2) x%=31
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%=32773/31
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 31 is what percent of 32773

100%/x%=32773/31
(100/x)*x=(32773/31)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1057.1935483871*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1057.1935483871) to get x
100/1057.1935483871=x
0.09459005888994=x
x=0.09459005888994

now we have:
31 is 0.09459005888994% of 32773
