134.2 is what percent of 6021.93 - 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 6021.93 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 6021.93, so we can write it down as 100%=6021.93.
4. We know, that x% equals 134.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=134.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6021.93
2) x%=134.2
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%=6021.93/134.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 134.2 is what percent of 6021.93

100%/x%=6021.93/134.2
(100/x)*x=(6021.93/134.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=44.872801788376*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (44.872801788376) to get x
100/44.872801788376=x
2.2285214208734=x
x=2.2285214208734

now we have:
134.2 is 2.2285214208734% of 6021.93
