322.7 is what percent of 1050 - 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 1050 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 1050, so we can write it down as 100%=1050.
4. We know, that x% equals 322.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=322.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1050
2) x%=322.7
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%=1050/322.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 322.7 is what percent of 1050

100%/x%=1050/322.7
(100/x)*x=(1050/322.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.2537960954447*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.2537960954447) to get x
100/3.2537960954447=x
30.733333333333=x
x=30.733333333333

now we have:
322.7 is 30.733333333333% of 1050
