269.18 is what percent of 294 - 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 294 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 294, so we can write it down as 100%=294.
4. We know, that x% equals 269.18 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=269.18.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=294
2) x%=269.18
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%=294/269.18
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 269.18 is what percent of 294

100%/x%=294/269.18
(100/x)*x=(294/269.18)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.092205958838*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.092205958838) to get x
100/1.092205958838=x
91.557823129252=x
x=91.557823129252

now we have:
269.18 is 91.557823129252% of 294
