167.16 is what percent of 2563 - 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 2563 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 2563, so we can write it down as 100%=2563.
4. We know, that x% equals 167.16 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=167.16.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2563
2) x%=167.16
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%=2563/167.16
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 167.16 is what percent of 2563

100%/x%=2563/167.16
(100/x)*x=(2563/167.16)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=15.332615458244*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.332615458244) to get x
100/15.332615458244=x
6.522044479126=x
x=6.522044479126

now we have:
167.16 is 6.522044479126% of 2563
