184.88 is what percent of 21.75 - 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 21.75 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 21.75, so we can write it down as 100%=21.75.
4. We know, that x% equals 184.88 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=184.88.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=21.75
2) x%=184.88
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%=21.75/184.88
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 184.88 is what percent of 21.75

100%/x%=21.75/184.88
(100/x)*x=(21.75/184.88)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.11764387710948*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.11764387710948) to get x
100/0.11764387710948=x
850.02298850575=x
x=850.02298850575

now we have:
184.88 is 850.02298850575% of 21.75
