369.54 is what percent of 2950 - 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 2950 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 2950, so we can write it down as 100%=2950.
4. We know, that x% equals 369.54 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=369.54.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2950
2) x%=369.54
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%=2950/369.54
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 369.54 is what percent of 2950

100%/x%=2950/369.54
(100/x)*x=(2950/369.54)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7.982897656546*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.982897656546) to get x
100/7.982897656546=x
12.526779661017=x
x=12.526779661017

now we have:
369.54 is 12.526779661017% of 2950
