What is 745 percent of 23700 - 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 23700 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 23700 is 100%, so we can write it down as 23700=100%.
4. We know, that x is 745% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=745%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 23700=100%
2) x=745%
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:
23700/x=100%/745%
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 745% of 23700

23700/x=100/745
(23700/x)*x=(100/745)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
23700=0.13422818791946*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.13422818791946) to get x
23700/0.13422818791946=x
176565=x
x=176565

now we have:
745% of 23700=176565
