25.93 is what percent of 33 - 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 33 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 33, so we can write it down as 100%=33.
4. We know, that x% equals 25.93 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=25.93.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=33
2) x%=25.93
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%=33/25.93
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 25.93 is what percent of 33

100%/x%=33/25.93
(100/x)*x=(33/25.93)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.2726571538758*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2726571538758) to get x
100/1.2726571538758=x
78.575757575758=x
x=78.575757575758

now we have:
25.93 is 78.575757575758% of 33
