10.34 is what percent of 24.522 - 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 24.522 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 24.522, so we can write it down as 100%=24.522.
4. We know, that x% equals 10.34 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=10.34.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=24.522
2) x%=10.34
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%=24.522/10.34
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 10.34 is what percent of 24.522

100%/x%=24.522/10.34
(100/x)*x=(24.522/10.34)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.3715667311412*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.3715667311412) to get x
100/2.3715667311412=x
42.166218089878=x
x=42.166218089878

now we have:
10.34 is 42.166218089878% of 24.522
