153.45 is what percent of 15.14 - 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 15.14 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 15.14, so we can write it down as 100%=15.14.
4. We know, that x% equals 153.45 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=153.45.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=15.14
2) x%=153.45
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%=15.14/153.45
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 153.45 is what percent of 15.14

100%/x%=15.14/153.45
(100/x)*x=(15.14/153.45)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.098664059954383*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.098664059954383) to get x
100/0.098664059954383=x
1013.5402906209=x
x=1013.5402906209

now we have:
153.45 is 1013.5402906209% of 15.14
