What is 2625 percent of 400 - 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 400 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 400 is 100%, so we can write it down as 400=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2625% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2625%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 400=100%
2) x=2625%
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:
400/x=100%/2625%
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 2625% of 400

400/x=100/2625
(400/x)*x=(100/2625)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
400=0.038095238095238*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.038095238095238) to get x
400/0.038095238095238=x
10500=x
x=10500

now we have:
2625% of 400=10500
