2.13 is what percent of 22.57 - 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 22.57 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 22.57, so we can write it down as 100%=22.57.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.13 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.13.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=22.57
2) x%=2.13
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%=22.57/2.13
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.13 is what percent of 22.57

100%/x%=22.57/2.13
(100/x)*x=(22.57/2.13)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.596244131455*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.596244131455) to get x
100/10.596244131455=x
9.4373061586176=x
x=9.4373061586176

now we have:
2.13 is 9.4373061586176% of 22.57
