220.48 is what percent of 880.38 - 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 880.38 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 880.38, so we can write it down as 100%=880.38.
4. We know, that x% equals 220.48 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=220.48.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=880.38
2) x%=220.48
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%=880.38/220.48
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 220.48 is what percent of 880.38

100%/x%=880.38/220.48
(100/x)*x=(880.38/220.48)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.9930152394775*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.9930152394775) to get x
100/3.9930152394775=x
25.043731116109=x
x=25.043731116109

now we have:
