What is 2025 percent of 262 - 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 262 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 262 is 100%, so we can write it down as 262=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2025% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2025%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 262=100%
2) x=2025%
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:
262/x=100%/2025%
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 2025% of 262

262/x=100/2025
(262/x)*x=(100/2025)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
262=0.049382716049383*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.049382716049383) to get x
262/0.049382716049383=x
5305.5=x
x=5305.5

now we have:
2025% of 262=5305.5
