22.08 is what percent of 64 - 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 64 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 64, so we can write it down as 100%=64.
4. We know, that x% equals 22.08 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=22.08.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=64
2) x%=22.08
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%=64/22.08
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 22.08 is what percent of 64

100%/x%=64/22.08
(100/x)*x=(64/22.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.8985507246377*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.8985507246377) to get x
100/2.8985507246377=x
34.5=x
x=34.5

now we have:
22.08 is 34.5% of 64
