5692.4 is what percent of 20330 - 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 20330 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 20330, so we can write it down as 100%=20330.
4. We know, that x% equals 5692.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=5692.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=20330
2) x%=5692.4
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%=20330/5692.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 5692.4 is what percent of 20330

100%/x%=20330/5692.4
(100/x)*x=(20330/5692.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.5714285714286*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.5714285714286) to get x
100/3.5714285714286=x
28=x
x=28

now we have:
5692.4 is 28% of 20330
