192.4 is what percent of 250 - 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 250 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 250, so we can write it down as 100%=250.
4. We know, that x% equals 192.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=192.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=250
2) x%=192.4
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%=250/192.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 192.4 is what percent of 250

100%/x%=250/192.4
(100/x)*x=(250/192.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.2993762993763*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2993762993763) to get x
100/1.2993762993763=x
76.96=x
x=76.96

now we have:
192.4 is 76.96% of 250
