22.25 is what percent of 20.6 - 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 20.6 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 20.6, so we can write it down as 100%=20.6.
4. We know, that x% equals 22.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=22.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=20.6
2) x%=22.25
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%=20.6/22.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 22.25 is what percent of 20.6

100%/x%=20.6/22.25
(100/x)*x=(20.6/22.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.92584269662921*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.92584269662921) to get x
100/0.92584269662921=x
108.00970873786=x
x=108.00970873786

now we have:
22.25 is 108.00970873786% of 20.6
