16.16 is what percent of 1122.84 - 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 1122.84 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 1122.84, so we can write it down as 100%=1122.84.
4. We know, that x% equals 16.16 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=16.16.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1122.84
2) x%=16.16
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%=1122.84/16.16
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 16.16 is what percent of 1122.84

100%/x%=1122.84/16.16
(100/x)*x=(1122.84/16.16)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=69.482673267327*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (69.482673267327) to get x
100/69.482673267327=x
1.4392077232731=x
x=1.4392077232731

now we have:
16.16 is 1.4392077232731% of 1122.84
