1026.19 is what percent of 1054 - 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 1054 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 1054, so we can write it down as 100%=1054.
4. We know, that x% equals 1026.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1026.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1054
2) x%=1026.19
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%=1054/1026.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1026.19 is what percent of 1054

100%/x%=1054/1026.19
(100/x)*x=(1054/1026.19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0271002445941*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0271002445941) to get x
100/1.0271002445941=x
97.361480075901=x
x=97.361480075901

now we have:
1026.19 is 97.361480075901% of 1054
