4673.18 is what percent of 74 - 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 74 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 74, so we can write it down as 100%=74.
4. We know, that x% equals 4673.18 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4673.18.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=74
2) x%=4673.18
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%=74/4673.18
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4673.18 is what percent of 74

100%/x%=74/4673.18
(100/x)*x=(74/4673.18)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.015835041663279*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.015835041663279) to get x
100/0.015835041663279=x
6315.1081081081=x
x=6315.1081081081

now we have:
4673.18 is 6315.1081081081% of 74
