What is 445 percent of 3740 - 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 3740 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 3740 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3740=100%.
4. We know, that x is 445% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=445%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3740=100%
2) x=445%
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:
3740/x=100%/445%
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 445% of 3740

3740/x=100/445
(3740/x)*x=(100/445)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
3740=0.2247191011236*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.2247191011236) to get x
3740/0.2247191011236=x
16643=x
x=16643

now we have:
445% of 3740=16643
