958.33 is what percent of 2625 - 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 2625 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 2625, so we can write it down as 100%=2625.
4. We know, that x% equals 958.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=958.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2625
2) x%=958.33
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%=2625/958.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 958.33 is what percent of 2625

100%/x%=2625/958.33
(100/x)*x=(2625/958.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.739139962226*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.739139962226) to get x
100/2.739139962226=x
36.50780952381=x
x=36.50780952381

now we have:
958.33 is 36.50780952381% of 2625
