4002 is what percent of 18225.66 - 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 18225.66 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 18225.66, so we can write it down as 100%=18225.66.
4. We know, that x% equals 4002 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4002.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=18225.66
2) x%=4002
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%=18225.66/4002
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4002 is what percent of 18225.66

(100/x)*x=(18225.66/4002)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.5541379310345*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.5541379310345) to get x
100/4.5541379310345=x
21.958052547891=x
x=21.958052547891

now we have:
