674.38 is what percent of 9995 - 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 9995 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 9995, so we can write it down as 100%=9995.
4. We know, that x% equals 674.38 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=674.38.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9995
2) x%=674.38
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%=9995/674.38
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 674.38 is what percent of 9995

100%/x%=9995/674.38
(100/x)*x=(9995/674.38)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=14.821020789466*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.821020789466) to get x
100/14.821020789466=x
6.7471735867934=x
x=6.7471735867934

now we have:
674.38 is 6.7471735867934% of 9995
