105.44 is what percent of 527.87 - 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 527.87 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 527.87, so we can write it down as 100%=527.87.
4. We know, that x% equals 105.44 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=105.44.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=527.87
2) x%=105.44
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%=527.87/105.44
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 105.44 is what percent of 527.87

100%/x%=527.87/105.44
(100/x)*x=(527.87/105.44)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.0063543247344*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.0063543247344) to get x
100/5.0063543247344=x
19.974614962017=x
x=19.974614962017

now we have:
