3336.9 is what percent of 4760 - 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 4760 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 4760, so we can write it down as 100%=4760.
4. We know, that x% equals 3336.9 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3336.9.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4760
2) x%=3336.9
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%=4760/3336.9
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3336.9 is what percent of 4760

100%/x%=4760/3336.9
(100/x)*x=(4760/3336.9)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.4264736731697*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4264736731697) to get x
100/1.4264736731697=x
70.102941176471=x
x=70.102941176471

now we have:
3336.9 is 70.102941176471% of 4760
