326.74 is what percent of 2750 - 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 2750 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 2750, so we can write it down as 100%=2750.
4. We know, that x% equals 326.74 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=326.74.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2750
2) x%=326.74
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%=2750/326.74
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 326.74 is what percent of 2750

100%/x%=2750/326.74
(100/x)*x=(2750/326.74)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=8.4164779335251*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.4164779335251) to get x
100/8.4164779335251=x
11.881454545455=x
x=11.881454545455

now we have:
326.74 is 11.881454545455% of 2750
