48.26 is what percent of 65900 - 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 65900 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 65900, so we can write it down as 100%=65900.
4. We know, that x% equals 48.26 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=48.26.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=65900
2) x%=48.26
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%=65900/48.26
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 48.26 is what percent of 65900

100%/x%=65900/48.26
(100/x)*x=(65900/48.26)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1365.5200994613*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1365.5200994613) to get x
100/1365.5200994613=x
0.073232169954476=x
x=0.073232169954476

now we have:
48.26 is 0.073232169954476% of 65900
