22 is what percent of 164000 - 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 164000 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 164000, so we can write it down as 100%=164000.
4. We know, that x% equals 22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=164000
2) x%=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%=164000/22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 22 is what percent of 164000

100%/x%=164000/22
(100/x)*x=(164000/22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7454.5454545455*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7454.5454545455) to get x
100/7454.5454545455=x
0.013414634146341=x
x=0.013414634146341

now we have:
22 is 0.013414634146341% of 164000
