69.98 is what percent of 2160 - 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 2160 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 2160, so we can write it down as 100%=2160.
4. We know, that x% equals 69.98 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=69.98.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2160
2) x%=69.98
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%=2160/69.98
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 69.98 is what percent of 2160

100%/x%=2160/69.98
(100/x)*x=(2160/69.98)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=30.865961703344*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (30.865961703344) to get x
100/30.865961703344=x
3.2398148148148=x
x=3.2398148148148

now we have:
69.98 is 3.2398148148148% of 2160
