22.28 is what percent of 513 - 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 513 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 513, so we can write it down as 100%=513.
4. We know, that x% equals 22.28 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=22.28.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=513
2) x%=22.28
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%=513/22.28
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 22.28 is what percent of 513

100%/x%=513/22.28
(100/x)*x=(513/22.28)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=23.02513464991*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (23.02513464991) to get x
100/23.02513464991=x
4.3430799220273=x
x=4.3430799220273

now we have:
22.28 is 4.3430799220273% of 513
