What is 3750 percent of 5158 - 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 5158 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 5158 is 100%, so we can write it down as 5158=100%.
4. We know, that x is 3750% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=3750%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 5158=100%
2) x=3750%
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:
5158/x=100%/3750%
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 3750% of 5158

5158/x=100/3750
(5158/x)*x=(100/3750)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
5158=0.026666666666667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.026666666666667) to get x
5158/0.026666666666667=x
193425=x
x=193425

now we have:
3750% of 5158=193425
