9.88 is what percent of 22.02 - 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 22.02 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 22.02, so we can write it down as 100%=22.02.
4. We know, that x% equals 9.88 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9.88.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=22.02
2) x%=9.88
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%=22.02/9.88
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9.88 is what percent of 22.02

100%/x%=22.02/9.88
(100/x)*x=(22.02/9.88)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.2287449392713*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.2287449392713) to get x
100/2.2287449392713=x
44.868301544051=x
x=44.868301544051

now we have:
9.88 is 44.868301544051% of 22.02
