33.4 is what percent of 5.025 - 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 5.025 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 5.025, so we can write it down as 100%=5.025.
4. We know, that x% equals 33.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=33.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5.025
2) x%=33.4
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%=5.025/33.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 33.4 is what percent of 5.025

100%/x%=5.025/33.4
(100/x)*x=(5.025/33.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.15044910179641*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.15044910179641) to get x
100/0.15044910179641=x
664.67661691542=x
x=664.67661691542

now we have:
33.4 is 664.67661691542% of 5.025
