0.13 is what percent of 8.92 - 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 8.92 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 8.92, so we can write it down as 100%=8.92.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.13 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.13.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=8.92
2) x%=0.13
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%=8.92/0.13
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.13 is what percent of 8.92

100%/x%=8.92/0.13
(100/x)*x=(8.92/0.13)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=68.615384615385*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (68.615384615385) to get x
100/68.615384615385=x
1.457399103139=x
x=1.457399103139

now we have:
0.13 is 1.457399103139% of 8.92
