672.56 is what percent of 48000 - 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 48000 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 48000, so we can write it down as 100%=48000.
4. We know, that x% equals 672.56 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=672.56.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=48000
2) x%=672.56
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%=48000/672.56
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 672.56 is what percent of 48000

100%/x%=48000/672.56
(100/x)*x=(48000/672.56)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=71.369097180921*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (71.369097180921) to get x
100/71.369097180921=x
1.4011666666667=x
x=1.4011666666667

now we have:
672.56 is 1.4011666666667% of 48000
