888.19 is what percent of 2750 - 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 2750 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 2750, so we can write it down as 100%=2750.
4. We know, that x% equals 888.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=888.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2750
2) x%=888.19
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%=2750/888.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 888.19 is what percent of 2750

100%/x%=2750/888.19
(100/x)*x=(2750/888.19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.0961843749648*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.0961843749648) to get x
100/3.0961843749648=x
32.297818181818=x
x=32.297818181818

now we have:
888.19 is 32.297818181818% of 2750
