1.19 is what percent of 25.08 - 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 25.08 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 25.08, so we can write it down as 100%=25.08.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=25.08
2) x%=1.19
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%=25.08/1.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.19 is what percent of 25.08

100%/x%=25.08/1.19
(100/x)*x=(25.08/1.19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=21.075630252101*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (21.075630252101) to get x
100/21.075630252101=x
4.7448165869218=x
x=4.7448165869218

now we have:
1.19 is 4.7448165869218% of 25.08
