8.25 is what percent of 351.8671 - 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 351.8671 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 351.8671, so we can write it down as 100%=351.8671.
4. We know, that x% equals 8.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=8.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=351.8671
2) x%=8.25
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%=351.8671/8.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 8.25 is what percent of 351.8671

100%/x%=351.8671/8.25
(100/x)*x=(351.8671/8.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=42.650557575758*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (42.650557575758) to get x
100/42.650557575758=x
2.3446352330184=x
x=2.3446352330184

now we have:
