What is 21.4 percent of 3725.26 - 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 3725.26 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 3725.26 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3725.26=100%.
4. We know, that x is 21.4% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=21.4%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3725.26=100%
2) x=21.4%
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:
3725.26/x=100%/21.4%
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 21.4% of 3725.26

3725.26/x=100/21.4
(3725.26/x)*x=(100/21.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
3725.26=4.6728971962617*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.6728971962617) to get x
3725.26/4.6728971962617=x
797.20564=x
x=797.20564

now we have:
