24.68 is what percent of 335.25 - 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 335.25 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 335.25, so we can write it down as 100%=335.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 24.68 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=24.68.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=335.25
2) x%=24.68
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%=335.25/24.68
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 24.68 is what percent of 335.25

100%/x%=335.25/24.68
(100/x)*x=(335.25/24.68)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=13.583873581848*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.583873581848) to get x
100/13.583873581848=x
7.3616703952274=x
x=7.3616703952274

now we have:
24.68 is 7.3616703952274% of 335.25
