20.97 is what percent of 195.04 - 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 195.04 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 195.04, so we can write it down as 100%=195.04.
4. We know, that x% equals 20.97 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=20.97.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=195.04
2) x%=20.97
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%=195.04/20.97
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 20.97 is what percent of 195.04

100%/x%=195.04/20.97
(100/x)*x=(195.04/20.97)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.3009060562709*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.3009060562709) to get x
100/9.3009060562709=x
10.751640689089=x
x=10.751640689089

now we have:
20.97 is 10.751640689089% of 195.04
