250.52 is what percent of 2254.76 - 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 2254.76 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 2254.76, so we can write it down as 100%=2254.76.
4. We know, that x% equals 250.52 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=250.52.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2254.76
2) x%=250.52
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%=2254.76/250.52
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 250.52 is what percent of 2254.76

100%/x%=2254.76/250.52
(100/x)*x=(2254.76/250.52)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.0003193357816*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.0003193357816) to get x
100/9.0003193357816=x
11.110716883393=x
x=11.110716883393

now we have:
250.52 is 11.110716883393% of 2254.76
