14.95 is what percent of 69.38 - 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 69.38 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 69.38, so we can write it down as 100%=69.38.
4. We know, that x% equals 14.95 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=14.95.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=69.38
2) x%=14.95
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%=69.38/14.95
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 14.95 is what percent of 69.38

100%/x%=69.38/14.95
(100/x)*x=(69.38/14.95)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.6408026755853*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.6408026755853) to get x
100/4.6408026755853=x
21.54799654079=x
x=21.54799654079

now we have:
14.95 is 21.54799654079% of 69.38
