133.73 is what percent of 2420.8 - 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 2420.8 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 2420.8, so we can write it down as 100%=2420.8.
4. We know, that x% equals 133.73 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=133.73.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2420.8
2) x%=133.73
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%=2420.8/133.73
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 133.73 is what percent of 2420.8

100%/x%=2420.8/133.73
(100/x)*x=(2420.8/133.73)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=18.102146115307*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (18.102146115307) to get x
100/18.102146115307=x
5.5242068737607=x
x=5.5242068737607

now we have:
133.73 is 5.5242068737607% of 2420.8
