134.22 is what percent of 179.22 - 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 179.22 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 179.22, so we can write it down as 100%=179.22.
4. We know, that x% equals 134.22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=134.22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=179.22
2) x%=134.22
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%=179.22/134.22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 134.22 is what percent of 179.22

100%/x%=179.22/134.22
(100/x)*x=(179.22/134.22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3352704514975*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3352704514975) to get x
100/1.3352704514975=x
74.891195179109=x
x=74.891195179109

now we have:
134.22 is 74.891195179109% of 179.22
