2.2222222222222E+38 is what percent of 5.5555555555556E+18 - 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 5.5555555555556E+18 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 5.5555555555556E+18, so we can write it down as 100%=5.5555555555556E+18.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.2222222222222E+38 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.2222222222222E+38.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5.5555555555556E+18
2) x%=2.2222222222222E+38
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%=5.5555555555556E+18/2.2222222222222E+38
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.2222222222222E+38 is what percent of 5.5555555555556E+18

100%/x%=5.5555555555556E+18/2.2222222222222E+38
(100/x)*x=(5.5555555555556E+18/2.2222222222222E+38)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.5E-20*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.5E-20) to get x
100/2.5E-20=x
4.0E+21=x
x=4.0E+21

now we have:
2.2222222222222E+38 is 4.0E+21% of 5.5555555555556E+18
