2.08 is what percent of 90.65 - 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 90.65 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 90.65, so we can write it down as 100%=90.65.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.08 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.08.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=90.65
2) x%=2.08
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%=90.65/2.08
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.08 is what percent of 90.65

100%/x%=90.65/2.08
(100/x)*x=(90.65/2.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=43.581730769231*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (43.581730769231) to get x
100/43.581730769231=x
2.2945394373966=x
x=2.2945394373966

now we have:
2.08 is 2.2945394373966% of 90.65
