209.47 is what percent of 955.94 - 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 955.94 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 955.94, so we can write it down as 100%=955.94.
4. We know, that x% equals 209.47 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=209.47.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=955.94
2) x%=209.47
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%=955.94/209.47
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 209.47 is what percent of 955.94

100%/x%=955.94/209.47
(100/x)*x=(955.94/209.47)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.5636129278656*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.5636129278656) to get x
100/4.5636129278656=x
21.912463125301=x
x=21.912463125301

now we have:
