0.29 is what percent of 29.44 - 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 29.44 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 29.44, so we can write it down as 100%=29.44.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.29 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.29.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=29.44
2) x%=0.29
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%=29.44/0.29
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.29 is what percent of 29.44

100%/x%=29.44/0.29
(100/x)*x=(29.44/0.29)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=101.51724137931*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (101.51724137931) to get x
100/101.51724137931=x
0.98505434782609=x
x=0.98505434782609

now we have:
0.29 is 0.98505434782609% of 29.44
