3.43 is what percent of 137.11 - 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 137.11 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 137.11, so we can write it down as 100%=137.11.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.43 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.43.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=137.11
2) x%=3.43
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%=137.11/3.43
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.43 is what percent of 137.11

100%/x%=137.11/3.43
(100/x)*x=(137.11/3.43)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=39.973760932945*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (39.973760932945) to get x
100/39.973760932945=x
2.5016410181606=x
x=2.5016410181606

now we have:
3.43 is 2.5016410181606% of 137.11
