584.91 is what percent of 1750 - 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 1750 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 1750, so we can write it down as 100%=1750.
4. We know, that x% equals 584.91 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=584.91.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1750
2) x%=584.91
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%=1750/584.91
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 584.91 is what percent of 1750

100%/x%=1750/584.91
(100/x)*x=(1750/584.91)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.9919132858047*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.9919132858047) to get x
100/2.9919132858047=x
33.423428571429=x
x=33.423428571429

now we have:
584.91 is 33.423428571429% of 1750
