Answer:
35.51%, or, if rounded is 36%
Explanation:
1. We assume, that the number 352 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 352, so we can write it down as 100%=352.
4. We know, that x% equals 125 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=125.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=352
2) x%=125
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%=352/125
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
7. Solution for 125 is what percent of 352
100%/x%=352/125
(100/x)*x=(352/125)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.816*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.816) to get x
100/2.816=x
35.511363636364=x
x=35.511363636364
now we have:
125 is 35.511363636364% of 352
