33.66 is what percent of 33 - 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 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, so we can write it down as 100%=33.
4. We know, that x% equals 33.66 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=33.66.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=33
2) x%=33.66
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%=33/33.66
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 33.66 is what percent of 33

100%/x%=33/33.66
(100/x)*x=(33/33.66)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.98039215686275*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.98039215686275) to get x
100/0.98039215686275=x
102=x
x=102

now we have:
33.66 is 102% of 33
