22 is what percent of 250000000 - 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 250000000 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 250000000, so we can write it down as 100%=250000000.
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%=250000000
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%=250000000/22
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 250000000

100%/x%=250000000/22
(100/x)*x=(250000000/22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=11363636.363636*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11363636.363636) to get x
100/11363636.363636=x
8.8E-6=x
x=8.8E-6

now we have:
22 is 8.8E-6% of 250000000
