1.8 is what percent of 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 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 93, so we can write it down as 100%=93.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.8 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.8.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=93
2) x%=1.8
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%=93/1.8
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.8 is what percent of 93

100%/x%=93/1.8
(100/x)*x=(93/1.8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=51.666666666667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (51.666666666667) to get x
100/51.666666666667=x
1.9354838709677=x
x=1.9354838709677

now we have:
1.8 is 1.9354838709677% of 93
