64.04 is what percent of 1841.25 - 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 1841.25 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 1841.25, so we can write it down as 100%=1841.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 64.04 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=64.04.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1841.25
2) x%=64.04
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%=1841.25/64.04
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 64.04 is what percent of 1841.25

100%/x%=1841.25/64.04
(100/x)*x=(1841.25/64.04)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=28.751561524047*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (28.751561524047) to get x
100/28.751561524047=x
3.4780719619823=x
x=3.4780719619823

now we have:
64.04 is 3.4780719619823% of 1841.25
