230.22 is what percent of 246.66 - 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 246.66 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 246.66, so we can write it down as 100%=246.66.
4. We know, that x% equals 230.22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=230.22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=246.66
2) x%=230.22
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%=246.66/230.22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 230.22 is what percent of 246.66

100%/x%=246.66/230.22
(100/x)*x=(246.66/230.22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0714099556946*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0714099556946) to get x
100/1.0714099556946=x
93.334954998784=x
x=93.334954998784

now we have:
230.22 is 93.334954998784% of 246.66
