1 is what percent of 292.291 - 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 292.291 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 292.291, so we can write it down as 100%=292.291.
4. We know, that x% equals 1 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=292.291
2) x%=1
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%=292.291/1
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1 is what percent of 292.291

100%/x%=292.291/1
(100/x)*x=(292.291/1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=292.291*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (292.291) to get x
100/292.291=x
0.34212480028465=x
x=0.34212480028465

now we have:
1 is 0.34212480028465% of 292.291
