1.94 is what percent of 12.25 - 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 12.25 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 12.25, so we can write it down as 100%=12.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.94 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.94.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=12.25
2) x%=1.94
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%=12.25/1.94
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.94 is what percent of 12.25

100%/x%=12.25/1.94
(100/x)*x=(12.25/1.94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=6.3144329896907*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.3144329896907) to get x
100/6.3144329896907=x
15.836734693878=x
x=15.836734693878

now we have:
1.94 is 15.836734693878% of 12.25
