What is 3995 percent of 75 - 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 75 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 75 is 100%, so we can write it down as 75=100%.
4. We know, that x is 3995% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=3995%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 75=100%
2) x=3995%
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:
75/x=100%/3995%
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 3995% of 75

75/x=100/3995
(75/x)*x=(100/3995)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
75=0.025031289111389*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.025031289111389) to get x
75/0.025031289111389=x
2996.25=x
x=2996.25

now we have:
3995% of 75=2996.25
