2305.36 is what percent of 1967 - 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 1967 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 1967, so we can write it down as 100%=1967.
4. We know, that x% equals 2305.36 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2305.36.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1967
2) x%=2305.36
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%=1967/2305.36
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2305.36 is what percent of 1967

100%/x%=1967/2305.36
(100/x)*x=(1967/2305.36)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.85322899677274*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.85322899677274) to get x
100/0.85322899677274=x
117.20183019827=x
x=117.20183019827

now we have:
2305.36 is 117.20183019827% of 1967
