8315.4 is what percent of 30629 - 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 30629 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 30629, so we can write it down as 100%=30629.
4. We know, that x% equals 8315.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=8315.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=30629
2) x%=8315.4
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%=30629/8315.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 8315.4 is what percent of 30629

100%/x%=30629/8315.4
(100/x)*x=(30629/8315.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.6834066911995*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.6834066911995) to get x
100/3.6834066911995=x
27.148780567436=x
x=27.148780567436

now we have:
