33.06 is what percent of 14.4 - 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 14.4 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 14.4, so we can write it down as 100%=14.4.
4. We know, that x% equals 33.06 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=33.06.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=14.4
2) x%=33.06
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%=14.4/33.06
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 33.06 is what percent of 14.4

100%/x%=14.4/33.06
(100/x)*x=(14.4/33.06)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.43557168784029*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.43557168784029) to get x
100/0.43557168784029=x
229.58333333333=x
x=229.58333333333

now we have:
33.06 is 229.58333333333% of 14.4
