1620.48 is what percent of 6250 - 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 6250 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 6250, so we can write it down as 100%=6250.
4. We know, that x% equals 1620.48 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1620.48.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6250
2) x%=1620.48
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%=6250/1620.48
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1620.48 is what percent of 6250

100%/x%=6250/1620.48
(100/x)*x=(6250/1620.48)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.8568819115324*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.8568819115324) to get x
100/3.8568819115324=x
25.92768=x
x=25.92768

now we have:
1620.48 is 25.92768% of 6250
