36.25 is what percent of 7680 - 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 7680 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 7680, so we can write it down as 100%=7680.
4. We know, that x% equals 36.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=36.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7680
2) x%=36.25
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%=7680/36.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 36.25 is what percent of 7680

100%/x%=7680/36.25
(100/x)*x=(7680/36.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=211.862068966*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (211.862068966) to get x
100/211.862068966=x
0.472005208333=x
x=0.472005208333

now we have:
36.25 is 0.472005208333% of 7680
