34.54 is what percent of 113.04 - 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 113.04 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 113.04, so we can write it down as 100%=113.04.
4. We know, that x% equals 34.54 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=34.54.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=113.04
2) x%=34.54
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%=113.04/34.54
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 34.54 is what percent of 113.04

100%/x%=113.04/34.54
(100/x)*x=(113.04/34.54)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.2727272727273*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.2727272727273) to get x
100/3.2727272727273=x
30.555555555556=x
x=30.555555555556

now we have:
34.54 is 30.555555555556% of 113.04
