1089.01 is what percent of 5200 - 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 5200 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 5200, so we can write it down as 100%=5200.
4. We know, that x% equals 1089.01 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1089.01.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5200
2) x%=1089.01
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%=5200/1089.01
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1089.01 is what percent of 5200

100%/x%=5200/1089.01
(100/x)*x=(5200/1089.01)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.7749791094664*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.7749791094664) to get x
100/4.7749791094664=x
20.9425=x
x=20.9425

now we have:
1089.01 is 20.9425% of 5200
