64.22 is what percent of 96 - 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 96 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 96, so we can write it down as 100%=96.
4. We know, that x% equals 64.22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=64.22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=96
2) x%=64.22
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%=96/64.22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 64.22 is what percent of 96

100%/x%=96/64.22
(100/x)*x=(96/64.22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.4948614138898*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4948614138898) to get x
100/1.4948614138898=x
66.895833333333=x
x=66.895833333333

now we have:
64.22 is 66.895833333333% of 96
