2.45 is what percent of 182.94 - 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 182.94 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 182.94, so we can write it down as 100%=182.94.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.45 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.45.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=182.94
2) x%=2.45
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%=182.94/2.45
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.45 is what percent of 182.94

100%/x%=182.94/2.45
(100/x)*x=(182.94/2.45)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=74.669387755102*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (74.669387755102) to get x
100/74.669387755102=x
1.3392369082759=x
x=1.3392369082759

now we have:
2.45 is 1.3392369082759% of 182.94
