353.68 is what percent of 7.5 - 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 7.5 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 7.5, so we can write it down as 100%=7.5.
4. We know, that x% equals 353.68 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=353.68.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7.5
2) x%=353.68
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%=7.5/353.68
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 353.68 is what percent of 7.5

100%/x%=7.5/353.68
(100/x)*x=(7.5/353.68)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.02120560959059*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.02120560959059) to get x
100/0.02120560959059=x
4715.7333333333=x
x=4715.7333333333

now we have:
353.68 is 4715.7333333333% of 7.5
