110.8 is what percent of 146 - 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 146 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 146, so we can write it down as 100%=146.
4. We know, that x% equals 110.8 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=110.8.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=146
2) x%=110.8
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%=146/110.8
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 110.8 is what percent of 146

100%/x%=146/110.8
(100/x)*x=(146/110.8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3176895306859*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3176895306859) to get x
100/1.3176895306859=x
75.890410958904=x
x=75.890410958904

now we have:
110.8 is 75.890410958904% of 146
