4983.52 is what percent of 7400 - 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 7400 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 7400, so we can write it down as 100%=7400.
4. We know, that x% equals 4983.52 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4983.52.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7400
2) x%=4983.52
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%=7400/4983.52
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4983.52 is what percent of 7400

100%/x%=7400/4983.52
(100/x)*x=(7400/4983.52)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.4848942113205*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4848942113205) to get x
100/1.4848942113205=x
67.344864864865=x
x=67.344864864865

now we have:
4983.52 is 67.344864864865% of 7400
