11.04 is what percent of 5.52 - 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 5.52 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 5.52, so we can write it down as 100%=5.52.
4. We know, that x% equals 11.04 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=11.04.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5.52
2) x%=11.04
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%=5.52/11.04
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 11.04 is what percent of 5.52

100%/x%=5.52/11.04
(100/x)*x=(5.52/11.04)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.5*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.5) to get x
100/0.5=x
200=x
x=200

now we have:
11.04 is 200% of 5.52
