334.25 is what percent of 2418 - 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 2418 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 2418, so we can write it down as 100%=2418.
4. We know, that x% equals 334.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=334.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2418
2) x%=334.25
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%=2418/334.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 334.25 is what percent of 2418

100%/x%=2418/334.25
(100/x)*x=(2418/334.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7.2341062079282*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.2341062079282) to get x
100/7.2341062079282=x
13.823407775021=x
x=13.823407775021

now we have:
334.25 is 13.823407775021% of 2418
