115.19 is what percent of 1222 - 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 1222 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 1222, so we can write it down as 100%=1222.
4. We know, that x% equals 115.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=115.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1222
2) x%=115.19
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%=1222/115.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 115.19 is what percent of 1222

100%/x%=1222/115.19
(100/x)*x=(1222/115.19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.608559770813*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.608559770813) to get x
100/10.608559770813=x
9.4263502454992=x
x=9.4263502454992

now we have:
115.19 is 9.4263502454992% of 1222
