50.22 is what percent of 50.3 - 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 50.3 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 50.3, so we can write it down as 100%=50.3.
4. We know, that x% equals 50.22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=50.22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=50.3
2) x%=50.22
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%=50.3/50.22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 50.22 is what percent of 50.3

100%/x%=50.3/50.22
(100/x)*x=(50.3/50.22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0015929908403*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0015929908403) to get x
100/1.0015929908403=x
99.840954274354=x
x=99.840954274354

now we have:
50.22 is 99.840954274354% of 50.3
