25.41 is what percent of 1044 - 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 1044 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 1044, so we can write it down as 100%=1044.
4. We know, that x% equals 25.41 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=25.41.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1044
2) x%=25.41
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%=1044/25.41
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 25.41 is what percent of 1044

100%/x%=1044/25.41
(100/x)*x=(1044/25.41)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=41.086186540732*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (41.086186540732) to get x
100/41.086186540732=x
2.433908045977=x
x=2.433908045977

now we have:
25.41 is 2.433908045977% of 1044
