1.02 is what percent of 24.68 - 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 24.68 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 24.68, so we can write it down as 100%=24.68.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.02 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.02.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=24.68
2) x%=1.02
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%=24.68/1.02
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.02 is what percent of 24.68

100%/x%=24.68/1.02
(100/x)*x=(24.68/1.02)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=24.196078431373*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (24.196078431373) to get x
100/24.196078431373=x
4.1329011345219=x
x=4.1329011345219

now we have:
1.02 is 4.1329011345219% of 24.68
