156.24 is what percent of 93 - 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 93 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 93, so we can write it down as 100%=93.
4. We know, that x% equals 156.24 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=156.24.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=93
2) x%=156.24
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%=93/156.24
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 156.24 is what percent of 93

100%/x%=93/156.24
(100/x)*x=(93/156.24)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.5952380952381*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.5952380952381) to get x
100/0.5952380952381=x
168=x
x=168

now we have:
156.24 is 168% of 93
