574.45 is what percent of 15450 - 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 15450 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 15450, so we can write it down as 100%=15450.
4. We know, that x% equals 574.45 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=574.45.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=15450
2) x%=574.45
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%=15450/574.45
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 574.45 is what percent of 15450

100%/x%=15450/574.45
(100/x)*x=(15450/574.45)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=26.895291148055*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (26.895291148055) to get x
100/26.895291148055=x
3.7181229773463=x
x=3.7181229773463

now we have:
