26727.5 is what percent of 105000 - 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 105000 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 105000, so we can write it down as 100%=105000.
4. We know, that x% equals 26727.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=26727.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=105000
2) x%=26727.5
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%=105000/26727.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 26727.5 is what percent of 105000

100%/x%=105000/26727.5
(100/x)*x=(105000/26727.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.9285380226359*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.9285380226359) to get x
100/3.9285380226359=x
25.454761904762=x
x=25.454761904762

now we have:
26727.5 is 25.454761904762% of 105000
