162.2 is what percent of 2.026 - 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 2.026 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 2.026, so we can write it down as 100%=2.026.
4. We know, that x% equals 162.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=162.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2.026
2) x%=162.2
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%=2.026/162.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 162.2 is what percent of 2.026

100%/x%=2.026/162.2
(100/x)*x=(2.026/162.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.01249075215783*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.01249075215783) to get x
100/0.01249075215783=x
8005.9230009872=x
x=8005.9230009872

now we have:
162.2 is 8005.9230009872% of 2.026
