3752.46 is what percent of 4000 - 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 4000 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 4000, so we can write it down as 100%=4000.
4. We know, that x% equals 3752.46 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3752.46.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4000
2) x%=3752.46
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%=4000/3752.46
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3752.46 is what percent of 4000

100%/x%=4000/3752.46
(100/x)*x=(4000/3752.46)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0659673920575*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0659673920575) to get x
100/1.0659673920575=x
93.8115=x
x=93.8115

now we have:
3752.46 is 93.8115% of 4000
