241.15 is what percent of 250.94 - 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 250.94 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 250.94, so we can write it down as 100%=250.94.
4. We know, that x% equals 241.15 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=241.15.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=250.94
2) x%=241.15
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%=250.94/241.15
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 241.15 is what percent of 250.94

100%/x%=250.94/241.15
(100/x)*x=(250.94/241.15)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0405971387103*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0405971387103) to get x
100/1.0405971387103=x
96.098669004543=x
x=96.098669004543

now we have:
241.15 is 96.098669004543% of 250.94
