169.64 is what percent of 183.25 - 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 183.25 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 183.25, so we can write it down as 100%=183.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 169.64 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=169.64.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=183.25
2) x%=169.64
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%=183.25/169.64
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 169.64 is what percent of 183.25

100%/x%=183.25/169.64
(100/x)*x=(183.25/169.64)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0802287196416*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0802287196416) to get x
100/1.0802287196416=x
92.572987721692=x
x=92.572987721692

now we have:
