24.48 is what percent of 69.97 - 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 69.97 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 69.97, so we can write it down as 100%=69.97.
4. We know, that x% equals 24.48 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=24.48.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=69.97
2) x%=24.48
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%=69.97/24.48
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 24.48 is what percent of 69.97

100%/x%=69.97/24.48
(100/x)*x=(69.97/24.48)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.8582516339869*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.8582516339869) to get x
100/2.8582516339869=x
34.986422752608=x
x=34.986422752608

now we have:
24.48 is 34.986422752608% of 69.97
