25.2 is what percent of 103.3 - 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 103.3 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 103.3, so we can write it down as 100%=103.3.
4. We know, that x% equals 25.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=25.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=103.3
2) x%=25.2
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%=103.3/25.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 25.2 is what percent of 103.3

100%/x%=103.3/25.2
(100/x)*x=(103.3/25.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.0992063492063*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.0992063492063) to get x
100/4.0992063492063=x
24.394966118103=x
x=24.394966118103

now we have:
25.2 is 24.394966118103% of 103.3
