216.83 is what percent of 1467 - 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 1467 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 1467, so we can write it down as 100%=1467.
4. We know, that x% equals 216.83 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=216.83.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1467
2) x%=216.83
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%=1467/216.83
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 216.83 is what percent of 1467

100%/x%=1467/216.83
(100/x)*x=(1467/216.83)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=6.7656689572476*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.7656689572476) to get x
100/6.7656689572476=x
14.780504430811=x
x=14.780504430811

now we have:
216.83 is 14.780504430811% of 1467
