25 is what percent of 22.803 - 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 22.803 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 22.803, so we can write it down as 100%=22.803.
4. We know, that x% equals 25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=22.803
2) x%=25
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%=22.803/25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 25 is what percent of 22.803

100%/x%=22.803/25
(100/x)*x=(22.803/25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.91212*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.91212) to get x
100/0.91212=x
109.63469718897=x
x=109.63469718897

now we have:
25 is 109.63469718897% of 22.803
