1008.06 is what percent of 794 - 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 794 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 794, so we can write it down as 100%=794.
4. We know, that x% equals 1008.06 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1008.06.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=794
2) x%=1008.06
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%=794/1008.06
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1008.06 is what percent of 794

100%/x%=794/1008.06
(100/x)*x=(794/1008.06)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.78765152867885*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.78765152867885) to get x
100/0.78765152867885=x
126.959697733=x
x=126.959697733

now we have:
1008.06 is 126.959697733% of 794
