110.49 is what percent of 149 - 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 149 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 149, so we can write it down as 100%=149.
4. We know, that x% equals 110.49 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=110.49.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=149
2) x%=110.49
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%=149/110.49
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 110.49 is what percent of 149

100%/x%=149/110.49
(100/x)*x=(149/110.49)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3485383292606*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3485383292606) to get x
100/1.3485383292606=x
74.154362416107=x
x=74.154362416107

now we have:
110.49 is 74.154362416107% of 149
