10.82 is what percent of 920.657 - 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 920.657 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 920.657, so we can write it down as 100%=920.657.
4. We know, that x% equals 10.82 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=10.82.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=920.657
2) x%=10.82
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%=920.657/10.82
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 10.82 is what percent of 920.657

100%/x%=920.657/10.82
(100/x)*x=(920.657/10.82)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=85.088447319778*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (85.088447319778) to get x
100/85.088447319778=x
1.1752476763876=x
x=1.1752476763876

now we have:
