22 is what percent of 9400 - 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 9400 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 9400, so we can write it down as 100%=9400.
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%=9400
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%=9400/22
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 9400

100%/x%=9400/22
(100/x)*x=(9400/22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=427.27272727273*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (427.27272727273) to get x
100/427.27272727273=x
0.23404255319149=x
x=0.23404255319149

now we have:
22 is 0.23404255319149% of 9400
