1.14 is what percent of 0.89 - 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 0.89 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 0.89, so we can write it down as 100%=0.89.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.14 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.14.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=0.89
2) x%=1.14
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%=0.89/1.14
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.14 is what percent of 0.89

100%/x%=0.89/1.14
(100/x)*x=(0.89/1.14)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.78070175438597*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.78070175438597) to get x
100/0.78070175438597=x
128.08988764045=x
x=128.08988764045

now we have:
1.14 is 128.08988764045% of 0.89
