672.01 is what percent of 2500 - 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 2500 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 2500, so we can write it down as 100%=2500.
4. We know, that x% equals 672.01 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=672.01.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2500
2) x%=672.01
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%=2500/672.01
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 672.01 is what percent of 2500

100%/x%=2500/672.01
(100/x)*x=(2500/672.01)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.720182735376*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.720182735376) to get x
100/3.720182735376=x
26.8804=x
x=26.8804

now we have:
672.01 is 26.8804% of 2500
