482.51 is what percent of 1750.27 - 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 1750.27 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 1750.27, so we can write it down as 100%=1750.27.
4. We know, that x% equals 482.51 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=482.51.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1750.27
2) x%=482.51
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%=1750.27/482.51
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 482.51 is what percent of 1750.27

100%/x%=1750.27/482.51
(100/x)*x=(1750.27/482.51)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.6274274108309*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.6274274108309) to get x
100/3.6274274108309=x
27.567746690511=x
x=27.567746690511

now we have:
