5755.29 is what percent of 8.341 - 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 8.341 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 8.341, so we can write it down as 100%=8.341.
4. We know, that x% equals 5755.29 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=5755.29.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=8.341
2) x%=5755.29
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%=8.341/5755.29
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 5755.29 is what percent of 8.341

100%/x%=8.341/5755.29
(100/x)*x=(8.341/5755.29)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.0014492753623188*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0014492753623188) to get x
100/0.0014492753623188=x
69000=x
x=69000

now we have:
5755.29 is 69000% of 8.341
