22 is what percent of 4108 - 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 4108 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 4108, so we can write it down as 100%=4108.
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%=4108
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%=4108/22
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 4108

100%/x%=4108/22
(100/x)*x=(4108/22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=186.72727272727*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (186.72727272727) to get x
100/186.72727272727=x
0.53554040895813=x
x=0.53554040895813

now we have:
22 is 0.53554040895813% of 4108
