24.06 is what percent of 366 - 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 366 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 366, so we can write it down as 100%=366.
4. We know, that x% equals 24.06 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=24.06.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=366
2) x%=24.06
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%=366/24.06
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 24.06 is what percent of 366

100%/x%=366/24.06
(100/x)*x=(366/24.06)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=15.211970074813*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.211970074813) to get x
100/15.211970074813=x
6.5737704918033=x
x=6.5737704918033

now we have:
24.06 is 6.5737704918033% of 366
