3173.44 is what percent of 25258 - 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 25258 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 25258, so we can write it down as 100%=25258.
4. We know, that x% equals 3173.44 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3173.44.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=25258
2) x%=3173.44
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%=25258/3173.44
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3173.44 is what percent of 25258

100%/x%=25258/3173.44
(100/x)*x=(25258/3173.44)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
