323.25 is what percent of 13118 - 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 13118 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 13118, so we can write it down as 100%=13118.
4. We know, that x% equals 323.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=323.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=13118
2) x%=323.25
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%=13118/323.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 323.25 is what percent of 13118

100%/x%=13118/323.25
(100/x)*x=(13118/323.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=40.581593194122*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (40.581593194122) to get x
100/40.581593194122=x
2.4641713675865=x
x=2.4641713675865

now we have:
323.25 is 2.4641713675865% of 13118
