793.52 is what percent of 2758.15 - 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 2758.15 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 2758.15, so we can write it down as 100%=2758.15.
4. We know, that x% equals 793.52 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=793.52.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2758.15
2) x%=793.52
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%=2758.15/793.52
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 793.52 is what percent of 2758.15

100%/x%=2758.15/793.52
(100/x)*x=(2758.15/793.52)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.4758418187317*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.4758418187317) to get x
100/3.4758418187317=x
28.770008882766=x
x=28.770008882766

now we have:
