3733.08 is what percent of 22315 - 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 22315 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 22315, so we can write it down as 100%=22315.
4. We know, that x% equals 3733.08 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3733.08.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=22315
2) x%=3733.08
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%=22315/3733.08
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3733.08 is what percent of 22315

100%/x%=22315/3733.08
(100/x)*x=(22315/3733.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.9776377682771*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.9776377682771) to get x
100/5.9776377682771=x
16.729016356711=x
x=16.729016356711

now we have:
