22.46 is what percent of 24.35 - 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 24.35 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 24.35, so we can write it down as 100%=24.35.
4. We know, that x% equals 22.46 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=22.46.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=24.35
2) x%=22.46
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%=24.35/22.46
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 22.46 is what percent of 24.35

100%/x%=24.35/22.46
(100/x)*x=(24.35/22.46)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0841495992876*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0841495992876) to get x
100/1.0841495992876=x
92.23819301848=x
x=92.23819301848

now we have:
22.46 is 92.23819301848% of 24.35
