32 is what percent of 4301 - 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 4301 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 4301, so we can write it down as 100%=4301.
4. We know, that x% equals 32 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=32.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4301
2) x%=32
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%=4301/32
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 32 is what percent of 4301

100%/x%=4301/32
(100/x)*x=(4301/32)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=134.40625*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (134.40625) to get x
100/134.40625=x
0.74401302022785=x
x=0.74401302022785

now we have:
32 is 0.74401302022785% of 4301
