What is 164800 percent of 2.5 - 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 2.5 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 2.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 164800% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=164800%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2.5=100%
2) x=164800%
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:
2.5/x=100%/164800%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 164800% of 2.5

2.5/x=100/164800
(2.5/x)*x=(100/164800)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2.5=0.00060679611650485*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.00060679611650485) to get x
2.5/0.00060679611650485=x
4120=x
x=4120

now we have:
164800% of 2.5=4120
