305.22 is what percent of 127.62 - 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 127.62 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 127.62, so we can write it down as 100%=127.62.
4. We know, that x% equals 305.22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=305.22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=127.62
2) x%=305.22
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%=127.62/305.22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 305.22 is what percent of 127.62

100%/x%=127.62/305.22
(100/x)*x=(127.62/305.22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.41812463141341*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.41812463141341) to get x
100/0.41812463141341=x
239.16314057358=x
x=239.16314057358

now we have:
305.22 is 239.16314057358% of 127.62
