104.4 is what percent of 1116 - 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 1116 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 1116, so we can write it down as 100%=1116.
4. We know, that x% equals 104.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=104.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1116
2) x%=104.4
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%=1116/104.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 104.4 is what percent of 1116

100%/x%=1116/104.4
(100/x)*x=(1116/104.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.689655172414*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.689655172414) to get x
100/10.689655172414=x
9.3548387096774=x
x=9.3548387096774

now we have:
104.4 is 9.3548387096774% of 1116
