22.16 is what percent of 92 - 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 92 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 92, so we can write it down as 100%=92.
4. We know, that x% equals 22.16 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=22.16.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=92
2) x%=22.16
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%=92/22.16
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 22.16 is what percent of 92

100%/x%=92/22.16
(100/x)*x=(92/22.16)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.1516245487365*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.1516245487365) to get x
100/4.1516245487365=x
24.086956521739=x
x=24.086956521739

now we have:
22.16 is 24.086956521739% of 92
