8175.22 is what percent of 78000 - 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 78000 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 78000, so we can write it down as 100%=78000.
4. We know, that x% equals 8175.22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=8175.22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=78000
2) x%=8175.22
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%=78000/8175.22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 8175.22 is what percent of 78000

100%/x%=78000/8175.22
(100/x)*x=(78000/8175.22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.5410276420696*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.5410276420696) to get x
100/9.5410276420696=x
10.481051282051=x
x=10.481051282051

now we have:
8175.22 is 10.481051282051% of 78000
