577.74 is what percent of 1793.13 - 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 1793.13 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 1793.13, so we can write it down as 100%=1793.13.
4. We know, that x% equals 577.74 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=577.74.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1793.13
2) x%=577.74
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%=1793.13/577.74
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 577.74 is what percent of 1793.13

100%/x%=1793.13/577.74
(100/x)*x=(1793.13/577.74)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.1036971648146*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.1036971648146) to get x
100/3.1036971648146=x
32.219638286125=x
x=32.219638286125

now we have:
