0.84 is what percent of 9.29 - 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 9.29 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 9.29, so we can write it down as 100%=9.29.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.84 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.84.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9.29
2) x%=0.84
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%=9.29/0.84
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.84 is what percent of 9.29

100%/x%=9.29/0.84
(100/x)*x=(9.29/0.84)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=11.059523809524*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11.059523809524) to get x
100/11.059523809524=x
9.0419806243272=x
x=9.0419806243272

now we have:
0.84 is 9.0419806243272% of 9.29
