69.03 is what percent of 285 - 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 285 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 285, so we can write it down as 100%=285.
4. We know, that x% equals 69.03 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=69.03.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=285
2) x%=69.03
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%=285/69.03
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 69.03 is what percent of 285

100%/x%=285/69.03
(100/x)*x=(285/69.03)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.1286397218601*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.1286397218601) to get x
100/4.1286397218601=x
24.221052631579=x
x=24.221052631579

now we have:
69.03 is 24.221052631579% of 285
