352.99 is what percent of 4015 - 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 4015 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 4015, so we can write it down as 100%=4015.
4. We know, that x% equals 352.99 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=352.99.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4015
2) x%=352.99
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%=4015/352.99
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 352.99 is what percent of 4015

100%/x%=4015/352.99
(100/x)*x=(4015/352.99)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=11.374259894048*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11.374259894048) to get x
100/11.374259894048=x
8.7917808219178=x
x=8.7917808219178

now we have:
352.99 is 8.7917808219178% of 4015
