14.67 is what percent of 15.25 - 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 15.25 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 15.25, so we can write it down as 100%=15.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 14.67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=14.67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=15.25
2) x%=14.67
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%=15.25/14.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 14.67 is what percent of 15.25

100%/x%=15.25/14.67
(100/x)*x=(15.25/14.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0395364689843*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0395364689843) to get x
100/1.0395364689843=x
96.196721311475=x
x=96.196721311475

now we have:
14.67 is 96.196721311475% of 15.25
