52302.01 is what percent of 150000 - 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 150000 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 150000, so we can write it down as 100%=150000.
4. We know, that x% equals 52302.01 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=52302.01.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=150000
2) x%=52302.01
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%=150000/52302.01
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 52302.01 is what percent of 150000

100%/x%=150000/52302.01
(100/x)*x=(150000/52302.01)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.8679586119157*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.8679586119157) to get x
100/2.8679586119157=x
34.868006666667=x
x=34.868006666667

now we have:
52302.01 is 34.868006666667% of 150000
