202.5 is what percent of 10970 - 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 10970 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 10970, so we can write it down as 100%=10970.
4. We know, that x% equals 202.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=202.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=10970
2) x%=202.5
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%=10970/202.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 202.5 is what percent of 10970

100%/x%=10970/202.5
(100/x)*x=(10970/202.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=54.172839506173*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (54.172839506173) to get x
100/54.172839506173=x
1.8459434822242=x
x=1.8459434822242

now we have:
202.5 is 1.8459434822242% of 10970
