0.94 is what percent of 2.24 - 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 2.24 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 2.24, so we can write it down as 100%=2.24.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.94 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.94.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2.24
2) x%=0.94
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%=2.24/0.94
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.94 is what percent of 2.24

100%/x%=2.24/0.94
(100/x)*x=(2.24/0.94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.3829787234043*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.3829787234043) to get x
100/2.3829787234043=x
41.964285714286=x
x=41.964285714286

now we have:
0.94 is 41.964285714286% of 2.24
