41 is what percent of 32.75 - 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 32.75 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 32.75, so we can write it down as 100%=32.75.
4. We know, that x% equals 41 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=41.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=32.75
2) x%=41
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%=32.75/41
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 41 is what percent of 32.75

100%/x%=32.75/41
(100/x)*x=(32.75/41)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.798780487805*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.798780487805) to get x
100/0.798780487805=x
125.190839695=x
x=125.190839695

now we have:
41 is 125.190839695% of 32.75
