30.84 is what percent of 33.586 - 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 33.586 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 33.586, so we can write it down as 100%=33.586.
4. We know, that x% equals 30.84 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=30.84.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=33.586
2) x%=30.84
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%=33.586/30.84
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 30.84 is what percent of 33.586

100%/x%=33.586/30.84
(100/x)*x=(33.586/30.84)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0890402075227*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0890402075227) to get x
100/1.0890402075227=x
91.823974274996=x
x=91.823974274996

now we have:
30.84 is 91.823974274996% of 33.586
