0.92 is what percent of 36.93 - 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 36.93 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 36.93, so we can write it down as 100%=36.93.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.92 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.92.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=36.93
2) x%=0.92
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%=36.93/0.92
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.92 is what percent of 36.93

100%/x%=36.93/0.92
(100/x)*x=(36.93/0.92)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=40.141304347826*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (40.141304347826) to get x
100/40.141304347826=x
2.4911995667479=x
x=2.4911995667479

now we have:
0.92 is 2.4911995667479% of 36.93
