137.34 is what percent of 573.19 - 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 573.19 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 573.19, so we can write it down as 100%=573.19.
4. We know, that x% equals 137.34 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=137.34.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=573.19
2) x%=137.34
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%=573.19/137.34
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 137.34 is what percent of 573.19

100%/x%=573.19/137.34
(100/x)*x=(573.19/137.34)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.1735109946119*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.1735109946119) to get x
100/4.1735109946119=x
23.960641323121=x
x=23.960641323121

now we have:
137.34 is 23.960641323121% of 573.19
