92.02 is what percent of 204.5 - 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 204.5 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 204.5, so we can write it down as 100%=204.5.
4. We know, that x% equals 92.02 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=92.02.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=204.5
2) x%=92.02
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%=204.5/92.02
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 92.02 is what percent of 204.5

100%/x%=204.5/92.02
(100/x)*x=(204.5/92.02)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.2223429689198*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.2223429689198) to get x
100/2.2223429689198=x
44.997555012225=x
x=44.997555012225

now we have:
92.02 is 44.997555012225% of 204.5
