0.62 is what percent of 9200 - 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 9200 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 9200, so we can write it down as 100%=9200.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.62 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.62.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9200
2) x%=0.62
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%=9200/0.62
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.62 is what percent of 9200

100%/x%=9200/0.62
(100/x)*x=(9200/0.62)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=14838.709677419*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14838.709677419) to get x
100/14838.709677419=x
0.0067391304347826=x
x=0.0067391304347826

now we have:
0.62 is 0.0067391304347826% of 9200
