92.23 is what percent of 184.46 - 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 184.46 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 184.46, so we can write it down as 100%=184.46.
4. We know, that x% equals 92.23 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=92.23.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=184.46
2) x%=92.23
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%=184.46/92.23
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 92.23 is what percent of 184.46

100%/x%=184.46/92.23
(100/x)*x=(184.46/92.23)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2) to get x
100/2=x
50=x
x=50

now we have:
92.23 is 50% of 184.46
