81.33 is what percent of 5000 - 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 5000 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 5000, so we can write it down as 100%=5000.
4. We know, that x% equals 81.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=81.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5000
2) x%=81.33
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%=5000/81.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 81.33 is what percent of 5000

100%/x%=5000/81.33
(100/x)*x=(5000/81.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=61.477929423337*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (61.477929423337) to get x
100/61.477929423337=x
1.6266=x
x=1.6266

now we have:
81.33 is 1.6266% of 5000
