752.87 is what percent of 302000 - 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 302000 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 302000, so we can write it down as 100%=302000.
4. We know, that x% equals 752.87 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=752.87.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=302000
2) x%=752.87
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%=302000/752.87
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 752.87 is what percent of 302000

100%/x%=302000/752.87
(100/x)*x=(302000/752.87)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=401.13166947813*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (401.13166947813) to get x
100/401.13166947813=x
0.24929470198675=x
x=0.24929470198675

now we have:
752.87 is 0.24929470198675% of 302000
