What is 1493 percent of 2500 - 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 2500 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 2500 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2500=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1493% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1493%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2500=100%
2) x=1493%
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:
2500/x=100%/1493%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 1493% of 2500

2500/x=100/1493
(2500/x)*x=(100/1493)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2500=0.066979236436705*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.066979236436705) to get x
2500/0.066979236436705=x
37325=x
x=37325

now we have:
1493% of 2500=37325
