673.9 is what percent of 294 - 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 294 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 294, so we can write it down as 100%=294.
4. We know, that x% equals 673.9 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=673.9.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=294
2) x%=673.9
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%=294/673.9
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 673.9 is what percent of 294

100%/x%=294/673.9
(100/x)*x=(294/673.9)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.43626650838403*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.43626650838403) to get x
100/0.43626650838403=x
229.21768707483=x
x=229.21768707483

now we have:
673.9 is 229.21768707483% of 294
