50.33 is what percent of 11.21 - 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 11.21 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 11.21, so we can write it down as 100%=11.21.
4. We know, that x% equals 50.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=50.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=11.21
2) x%=50.33
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%=11.21/50.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 50.33 is what percent of 11.21

100%/x%=11.21/50.33
(100/x)*x=(11.21/50.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.22272998211802*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.22272998211802) to get x
100/0.22272998211802=x
448.97413024086=x
x=448.97413024086

now we have:
50.33 is 448.97413024086% of 11.21
