175.44 is what percent of 910.21 - 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 910.21 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 910.21, so we can write it down as 100%=910.21.
4. We know, that x% equals 175.44 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=175.44.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=910.21
2) x%=175.44
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%=910.21/175.44
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 175.44 is what percent of 910.21

100%/x%=910.21/175.44
(100/x)*x=(910.21/175.44)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.188155494756*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.188155494756) to get x
100/5.188155494756=x
19.274672877688=x
x=19.274672877688

now we have:
175.44 is 19.274672877688% of 910.21
