What is 7450 percent of 172550 - 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 172550 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 172550 is 100%, so we can write it down as 172550=100%.
4. We know, that x is 7450% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=7450%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 172550=100%
2) x=7450%
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:
172550/x=100%/7450%
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 7450% of 172550

172550/x=100/7450
(172550/x)*x=(100/7450)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
