32.69 is what percent of 137.43 - 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 137.43 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 137.43, so we can write it down as 100%=137.43.
4. We know, that x% equals 32.69 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=32.69.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=137.43
2) x%=32.69
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%=137.43/32.69
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 32.69 is what percent of 137.43

100%/x%=137.43/32.69
(100/x)*x=(137.43/32.69)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.2040379320893*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.2040379320893) to get x
100/4.2040379320893=x
23.786655024376=x
x=23.786655024376

now we have:
32.69 is 23.786655024376% of 137.43
