22 is what percent of 3.27 - 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 3.27 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 3.27, so we can write it down as 100%=3.27.
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%=3.27
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%=3.27/22
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 3.27

100%/x%=3.27/22
(100/x)*x=(3.27/22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.14863636363636*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.14863636363636) to get x
100/0.14863636363636=x
672.78287461774=x
x=672.78287461774

now we have:
22 is 672.78287461774% of 3.27
