167.52 is what percent of 1022.29 - 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 1022.29 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 1022.29, so we can write it down as 100%=1022.29.
4. We know, that x% equals 167.52 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=167.52.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1022.29
2) x%=167.52
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%=1022.29/167.52
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 167.52 is what percent of 1022.29

100%/x%=1022.29/167.52
(100/x)*x=(1022.29/167.52)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=6.1024952244508*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.1024952244508) to get x
100/6.1024952244508=x
16.386739574876=x
x=16.386739574876

now we have:
167.52 is 16.386739574876% of 1022.29
