22.31 is what percent of 1379.62 - 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 1379.62 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 1379.62, so we can write it down as 100%=1379.62.
4. We know, that x% equals 22.31 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=22.31.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1379.62
2) x%=22.31
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%=1379.62/22.31
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 22.31 is what percent of 1379.62

100%/x%=1379.62/22.31
(100/x)*x=(1379.62/22.31)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=61.83863738234*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (61.83863738234) to get x
100/61.83863738234=x
1.6171119583653=x
x=1.6171119583653

now we have:
