2.23 is what percent of 11 - 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 11 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 11, so we can write it down as 100%=11.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.23 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.23.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=11
2) x%=2.23
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%=11/2.23
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.23 is what percent of 11

100%/x%=11/2.23
(100/x)*x=(11/2.23)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.932735426009*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.932735426009) to get x
100/4.932735426009=x
20.272727272727=x
x=20.272727272727

now we have:
2.23 is 20.272727272727% of 11
