904.89 is what percent of 1.744 - 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 1.744 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 1.744, so we can write it down as 100%=1.744.
4. We know, that x% equals 904.89 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=904.89.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1.744
2) x%=904.89
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%=1.744/904.89
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 904.89 is what percent of 1.744

100%/x%=1.744/904.89
(100/x)*x=(1.744/904.89)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.0019273060814022*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0019273060814022) to get x
100/0.0019273060814022=x
51885.894495413=x
x=51885.894495413

now we have:
904.89 is 51885.894495413% of 1.744
