x = original number
24.2/x × 100 = 22
24.2/x = 0.22
24.2/0.22 = x
x = 110
original number = 110

so % means out of 100 so 1%=1/100  so 22%=22/100

since 24.2=22/100 if we multiply the number by it's riciprcal
then we get one so for example 2/4=1/2 so 2/4 times 2/1 

so multiply 24.2/x (x is 100%) by 100/22
we get (24.2*100)/22x or
2420/22x
so if we divide 2420 by 22 then we get x which is 110 which is 100%
