10.73 is what percent of 11.49 - 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 11.49 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 11.49, so we can write it down as 100%=11.49.
4. We know, that x% equals 10.73 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=10.73.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=11.49
2) x%=10.73
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%=11.49/10.73
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 10.73 is what percent of 11.49

100%/x%=11.49/10.73
(100/x)*x=(11.49/10.73)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0708294501398*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0708294501398) to get x
100/1.0708294501398=x
93.385552654482=x
x=93.385552654482

now we have:
10.73 is 93.385552654482% of 11.49
