22.95 is what percent of 20.06 - 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 20.06 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 20.06, so we can write it down as 100%=20.06.
4. We know, that x% equals 22.95 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=22.95.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=20.06
2) x%=22.95
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%=20.06/22.95
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 22.95 is what percent of 20.06

100%/x%=20.06/22.95
(100/x)*x=(20.06/22.95)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.87407407407407*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.87407407407407) to get x
100/0.87407407407407=x
114.40677966102=x
x=114.40677966102

now we have:
22.95 is 114.40677966102% of 20.06
