107.5 is what percent of 2774 - 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 2774 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 100% equals 2774, so we can write it down as 100%=2774.
4. We know, that x% equals 107.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=107.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2774
2) x%=107.5
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:
100%/x%=2774/107.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 107.5 is what percent of 2774

100%/x%=2774/107.5
(100/x)*x=(2774/107.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=25.804651162791*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (25.804651162791) to get x
100/25.804651162791=x
3.8752703677001=x
x=3.8752703677001

now we have:
107.5 is 3.8752703677001% of 2774
