146.93 is what percent of 183.66 - 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 183.66 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 183.66, so we can write it down as 100%=183.66.
4. We know, that x% equals 146.93 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=146.93.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=183.66
2) x%=146.93
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%=183.66/146.93
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 146.93 is what percent of 183.66

100%/x%=183.66/146.93
(100/x)*x=(183.66/146.93)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.2499829850949*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2499829850949) to get x
100/1.2499829850949=x
80.001088968747=x
x=80.001088968747

now we have:
