244.75 is what percent of 1369.08 - 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 1369.08 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 1369.08, so we can write it down as 100%=1369.08.
4. We know, that x% equals 244.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=244.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1369.08
2) x%=244.75
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%=1369.08/244.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 244.75 is what percent of 1369.08

100%/x%=1369.08/244.75
(100/x)*x=(1369.08/244.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.5937895812053*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.5937895812053) to get x
100/5.5937895812053=x
17.87696847518=x
x=17.87696847518

now we have:
