80.35 is what percent of 2807.69 - 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 2807.69 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 2807.69, so we can write it down as 100%=2807.69.
4. We know, that x% equals 80.35 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=80.35.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2807.69
2) x%=80.35
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%=2807.69/80.35
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 80.35 is what percent of 2807.69

100%/x%=2807.69/80.35
(100/x)*x=(2807.69/80.35)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=34.943248288737*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (34.943248288737) to get x
100/34.943248288737=x
2.8617831740684=x
x=2.8617831740684

now we have:
