145.95 is what percent of 2343 - 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 2343 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 2343, so we can write it down as 100%=2343.
4. We know, that x% equals 145.95 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=145.95.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2343
2) x%=145.95
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%=2343/145.95
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 145.95 is what percent of 2343

100%/x%=2343/145.95
(100/x)*x=(2343/145.95)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=16.053442959918*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16.053442959918) to get x
100/16.053442959918=x
6.2291933418694=x
x=6.2291933418694

now we have:
145.95 is 6.2291933418694% of 2343
