755.55 is what percent of 45000 - 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 45000 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 45000, so we can write it down as 100%=45000.
4. We know, that x% equals 755.55 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=755.55.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=45000
2) x%=755.55
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%=45000/755.55
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 755.55 is what percent of 45000

100%/x%=45000/755.55
(100/x)*x=(45000/755.55)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=59.559261465158*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (59.559261465158) to get x
100/59.559261465158=x
1.679=x
x=1.679

now we have:
755.55 is 1.679% of 45000
