60.22 is what percent of 169.89 - 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 169.89 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 169.89, so we can write it down as 100%=169.89.
4. We know, that x% equals 60.22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=60.22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=169.89
2) x%=60.22
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%=169.89/60.22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 60.22 is what percent of 169.89

100%/x%=169.89/60.22
(100/x)*x=(169.89/60.22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.8211557622052*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.8211557622052) to get x
100/2.8211557622052=x
35.446465359939=x
x=35.446465359939

now we have:
60.22 is 35.446465359939% of 169.89
