2562.92 is what percent of 3325 - 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 3325 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 3325, so we can write it down as 100%=3325.
4. We know, that x% equals 2562.92 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2562.92.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3325
2) x%=2562.92
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%=3325/2562.92
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2562.92 is what percent of 3325

100%/x%=3325/2562.92
(100/x)*x=(3325/2562.92)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.297348337053*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.297348337053) to get x
100/1.297348337053=x
77.08030075188=x
x=77.08030075188

now we have:
2562.92 is 77.08030075188% of 3325
