82.34 is what percent of 1570 - 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 1570 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 1570, so we can write it down as 100%=1570.
4. We know, that x% equals 82.34 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=82.34.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1570
2) x%=82.34
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%=1570/82.34
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 82.34 is what percent of 1570

100%/x%=1570/82.34
(100/x)*x=(1570/82.34)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=19.067282001457*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (19.067282001457) to get x
100/19.067282001457=x
5.2445859872611=x
x=5.2445859872611

now we have:
82.34 is 5.2445859872611% of 1570
