27.3 is what percent of 60.22 - 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 60.22 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 60.22, so we can write it down as 100%=60.22.
4. We know, that x% equals 27.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=27.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=60.22
2) x%=27.3
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%=60.22/27.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 27.3 is what percent of 60.22

100%/x%=60.22/27.3
(100/x)*x=(60.22/27.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.2058608058608*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.2058608058608) to get x
100/2.2058608058608=x
45.333776154102=x
x=45.333776154102

now we have:
27.3 is 45.333776154102% of 60.22
