226.67 is what percent of 1476.64 - 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 1476.64 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 1476.64, so we can write it down as 100%=1476.64.
4. We know, that x% equals 226.67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=226.67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1476.64
2) x%=226.67
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%=1476.64/226.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 226.67 is what percent of 1476.64

100%/x%=1476.64/226.67
(100/x)*x=(1476.64/226.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=6.5144924339348*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.5144924339348) to get x
100/6.5144924339348=x
15.350390074764=x
x=15.350390074764

now we have:
