30.83 is what percent of 33.23 - 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 33.23 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 33.23, so we can write it down as 100%=33.23.
4. We know, that x% equals 30.83 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=30.83.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=33.23
2) x%=30.83
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%=33.23/30.83
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 30.83 is what percent of 33.23

100%/x%=33.23/30.83
(100/x)*x=(33.23/30.83)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.077846253649*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.077846253649) to get x
100/1.077846253649=x
92.777610592838=x
x=92.777610592838

now we have:
30.83 is 92.777610592838% of 33.23
