220.91 is what percent of 239.7 - 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 239.7 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 239.7, so we can write it down as 100%=239.7.
4. We know, that x% equals 220.91 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=220.91.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=239.7
2) x%=220.91
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%=239.7/220.91
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 220.91 is what percent of 239.7

100%/x%=239.7/220.91
(100/x)*x=(239.7/220.91)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0850572631388*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0850572631388) to get x
100/1.0850572631388=x
92.161034626617=x
x=92.161034626617

now we have:
220.91 is 92.161034626617% of 239.7
