3305.28 is what percent of 82632 - 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 82632 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 82632, so we can write it down as 100%=82632.
4. We know, that x% equals 3305.28 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3305.28.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=82632
2) x%=3305.28
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%=82632/3305.28
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3305.28 is what percent of 82632

100%/x%=82632/3305.28
(100/x)*x=(82632/3305.28)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=25*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (25) to get x
100/25=x
4=x
x=4

now we have:
3305.28 is 4% of 82632
