10 is what percent of 943 - 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 943 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 943, so we can write it down as 100%=943.
4. We know, that x% equals 10 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=10.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=943
2) x%=10
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%=943/10
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 10 is what percent of 943

100%/x%=943/10
(100/x)*x=(943/10)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=94.3*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (94.3) to get x
100/94.3=x
1.0604453870626=x
x=1.0604453870626

now we have:
10 is 1.0604453870626% of 943
