19.35 is what percent of 20.27 - 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 20.27 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 20.27, so we can write it down as 100%=20.27.
4. We know, that x% equals 19.35 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=19.35.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=20.27
2) x%=19.35
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%=20.27/19.35
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 19.35 is what percent of 20.27

100%/x%=20.27/19.35
(100/x)*x=(20.27/19.35)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0475452196382*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0475452196382) to get x
100/1.0475452196382=x
95.461272816971=x
x=95.461272816971

now we have:
19.35 is 95.461272816971% of 20.27
