2013.22 is what percent of 10240 - 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 10240 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 10240, so we can write it down as 100%=10240.
4. We know, that x% equals 2013.22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2013.22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=10240
2) x%=2013.22
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%=10240/2013.22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2013.22 is what percent of 10240

100%/x%=10240/2013.22
(100/x)*x=(10240/2013.22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.0863790345814*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.0863790345814) to get x
100/5.0863790345814=x
19.6603515625=x
x=19.6603515625

now we have:
2013.22 is 19.6603515625% of 10240
