344.33 is what percent of 1275 - 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 1275 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 1275, so we can write it down as 100%=1275.
4. We know, that x% equals 344.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=344.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1275
2) x%=344.33
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%=1275/344.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 344.33 is what percent of 1275

100%/x%=1275/344.33
(100/x)*x=(1275/344.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.7028432027416*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.7028432027416) to get x
100/3.7028432027416=x
27.006274509804=x
x=27.006274509804

now we have:
344.33 is 27.006274509804% of 1275
