1.09 is what percent of 3.63 - 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 3.63 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 3.63, so we can write it down as 100%=3.63.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.09 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.09.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3.63
2) x%=1.09
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%=3.63/1.09
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.09 is what percent of 3.63

100%/x%=3.63/1.09
(100/x)*x=(3.63/1.09)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.3302752293578*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.3302752293578) to get x
100/3.3302752293578=x
30.027548209366=x
x=30.027548209366

now we have:
1.09 is 30.027548209366% of 3.63
