297.57 is what percent of 923.02 - 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 923.02 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 923.02, so we can write it down as 100%=923.02.
4. We know, that x% equals 297.57 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=297.57.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=923.02
2) x%=297.57
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%=923.02/297.57
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 297.57 is what percent of 923.02

100%/x%=923.02/297.57
(100/x)*x=(923.02/297.57)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.1018583862621*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.1018583862621) to get x
100/3.1018583862621=x
32.238738055513=x
x=32.238738055513

now we have:
297.57 is 32.238738055513% of 923.02
