26.19 is what percent of 2303.25 - 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 2303.25 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 2303.25, so we can write it down as 100%=2303.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 26.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=26.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2303.25
2) x%=26.19
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%=2303.25/26.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 26.19 is what percent of 2303.25

100%/x%=2303.25/26.19
(100/x)*x=(2303.25/26.19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=87.943871706758*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (87.943871706758) to get x
100/87.943871706758=x
1.137088896125=x
x=1.137088896125

now we have:
