33.25 is what percent of 1694 - 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 1694 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 1694, so we can write it down as 100%=1694.
4. We know, that x% equals 33.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=33.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1694
2) x%=33.25
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%=1694/33.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 33.25 is what percent of 1694

100%/x%=1694/33.25
(100/x)*x=(1694/33.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=50.947368421053*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (50.947368421053) to get x
100/50.947368421053=x
1.9628099173554=x
x=1.9628099173554

now we have:
33.25 is 1.9628099173554% of 1694
