11 is what percent of 533.55 - 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 533.55 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 533.55, so we can write it down as 100%=533.55.
4. We know, that x% equals 11 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=11.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=533.55
2) x%=11
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%=533.55/11
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 11 is what percent of 533.55

100%/x%=533.55/11
(100/x)*x=(533.55/11)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=48.504545454545*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (48.504545454545) to get x
100/48.504545454545=x
2.0616624496298=x
x=2.0616624496298

now we have:
11 is 2.0616624496298% of 533.55
