1082.5 is what percent of 1155 - 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 1155 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 1155, so we can write it down as 100%=1155.
4. We know, that x% equals 1082.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1082.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1155
2) x%=1082.5
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%=1155/1082.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1082.5 is what percent of 1155

100%/x%=1155/1082.5
(100/x)*x=(1155/1082.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.066974595843*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.066974595843) to get x
100/1.066974595843=x
93.722943722944=x
x=93.722943722944

now we have:
1082.5 is 93.722943722944% of 1155
