363.38 is what percent of 4275 - 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 4275 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 4275, so we can write it down as 100%=4275.
4. We know, that x% equals 363.38 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=363.38.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4275
2) x%=363.38
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%=4275/363.38
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 363.38 is what percent of 4275

100%/x%=4275/363.38
(100/x)*x=(4275/363.38)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=11.764544003522*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11.764544003522) to get x
100/11.764544003522=x
8.5001169590643=x
x=8.5001169590643

now we have:
363.38 is 8.5001169590643% of 4275
