46072.13 is what percent of 30000 - 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 30000 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 30000, so we can write it down as 100%=30000.
4. We know, that x% equals 46072.13 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=46072.13.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=30000
2) x%=46072.13
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%=30000/46072.13
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 46072.13 is what percent of 30000

100%/x%=30000/46072.13
(100/x)*x=(30000/46072.13)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.65115287702131*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.65115287702131) to get x
100/0.65115287702131=x
153.57376666667=x
x=153.57376666667

now we have:
46072.13 is 153.57376666667% of 30000
