232.99 is what percent of 243.32 - 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 243.32 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 243.32, so we can write it down as 100%=243.32.
4. We know, that x% equals 232.99 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=232.99.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=243.32
2) x%=232.99
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%=243.32/232.99
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 232.99 is what percent of 243.32

100%/x%=243.32/232.99
(100/x)*x=(243.32/232.99)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0443366668097*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0443366668097) to get x
100/1.0443366668097=x
95.754561893802=x
x=95.754561893802

now we have:
