20.13 is what percent of 18.84 - 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 18.84 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 18.84, so we can write it down as 100%=18.84.
4. We know, that x% equals 20.13 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=20.13.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=18.84
2) x%=20.13
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%=18.84/20.13
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 20.13 is what percent of 18.84

100%/x%=18.84/20.13
(100/x)*x=(18.84/20.13)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.93591654247392*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.93591654247392) to get x
100/0.93591654247392=x
106.84713375796=x
x=106.84713375796

now we have:
20.13 is 106.84713375796% of 18.84
