345.33 is what percent of 1400 - 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 1400 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 1400, so we can write it down as 100%=1400.
4. We know, that x% equals 345.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=345.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1400
2) x%=345.33
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%=1400/345.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 345.33 is what percent of 1400

100%/x%=1400/345.33
(100/x)*x=(1400/345.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.0540931862277*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.0540931862277) to get x
100/4.0540931862277=x
24.666428571429=x
x=24.666428571429

now we have:
345.33 is 24.666428571429% of 1400
