30288.02 is what percent of 388.5 - 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 388.5 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 388.5, so we can write it down as 100%=388.5.
4. We know, that x% equals 30288.02 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=30288.02.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=388.5
2) x%=30288.02
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%=388.5/30288.02
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 30288.02 is what percent of 388.5

100%/x%=388.5/30288.02
(100/x)*x=(388.5/30288.02)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.0128268536537*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0128268536537) to get x
100/0.0128268536537=x
7796.14414414=x
x=7796.14414414

now we have:
