193.59 is what percent of 1118.21 - 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 1118.21 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 1118.21, so we can write it down as 100%=1118.21.
4. We know, that x% equals 193.59 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=193.59.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1118.21
2) x%=193.59
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%=1118.21/193.59
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 193.59 is what percent of 1118.21

(100/x)*x=(1118.21/193.59)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.7761764553954*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.7761764553954) to get x
100/5.7761764553954=x
17.312490498207=x
x=17.312490498207

now we have:
