22.27 is what percent of 13.6 - 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 13.6 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 13.6, so we can write it down as 100%=13.6.
4. We know, that x% equals 22.27 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=22.27.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=13.6
2) x%=22.27
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%=13.6/22.27
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 22.27 is what percent of 13.6

100%/x%=13.6/22.27
(100/x)*x=(13.6/22.27)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.61068702290076*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.61068702290076) to get x
100/0.61068702290076=x
163.75=x
x=163.75

now we have:
22.27 is 163.75% of 13.6
