4362.55 is what percent of 7990 - 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 7990 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 7990, so we can write it down as 100%=7990.
4. We know, that x% equals 4362.55 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4362.55.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7990
2) x%=4362.55
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%=7990/4362.55
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4362.55 is what percent of 7990

100%/x%=7990/4362.55
(100/x)*x=(7990/4362.55)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.8314976332649*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.8314976332649) to get x
100/1.8314976332649=x
54.600125156446=x
x=54.600125156446

now we have:
