393.92 is what percent of 1575.8 - 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 1575.8 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 1575.8, so we can write it down as 100%=1575.8.
4. We know, that x% equals 393.92 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=393.92.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1575.8
2) x%=393.92
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%=1575.8/393.92
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 393.92 is what percent of 1575.8

100%/x%=1575.8/393.92
(100/x)*x=(1575.8/393.92)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.0003046303818*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.0003046303818) to get x
100/4.0003046303818=x
24.998096205102=x
x=24.998096205102

now we have:
393.92 is 24.998096205102% of 1575.8
