267.23 is what percent of 2441.18 - 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 2441.18 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 2441.18, so we can write it down as 100%=2441.18.
4. We know, that x% equals 267.23 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=267.23.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2441.18
2) x%=267.23
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%=2441.18/267.23
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 267.23 is what percent of 2441.18

100%/x%=2441.18/267.23
(100/x)*x=(2441.18/267.23)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.1351270441193*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.1351270441193) to get x
100/9.1351270441193=x
10.946755257703=x
x=10.946755257703

now we have:
267.23 is 10.946755257703% of 2441.18
