50.94 is what percent of 2750 - 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 2750 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 2750, so we can write it down as 100%=2750.
4. We know, that x% equals 50.94 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=50.94.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2750
2) x%=50.94
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%=2750/50.94
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 50.94 is what percent of 2750

100%/x%=2750/50.94
(100/x)*x=(2750/50.94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=53.985080486847*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (53.985080486847) to get x
100/53.985080486847=x
1.8523636363636=x
x=1.8523636363636

now we have:
50.94 is 1.8523636363636% of 2750
