2.03 is what percent of 225.75 - 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 225.75 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 225.75, so we can write it down as 100%=225.75.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.03 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.03.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=225.75
2) x%=2.03
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%=225.75/2.03
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.03 is what percent of 225.75

100%/x%=225.75/2.03
(100/x)*x=(225.75/2.03)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=111.20689655172*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (111.20689655172) to get x
100/111.20689655172=x
0.89922480620155=x
x=0.89922480620155

now we have:
2.03 is 0.89922480620155% of 225.75
