1099.2 is what percent of 1119.2 - 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 1119.2 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 1119.2, so we can write it down as 100%=1119.2.
4. We know, that x% equals 1099.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1099.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1119.2
2) x%=1099.2
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%=1119.2/1099.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1099.2 is what percent of 1119.2

100%/x%=1119.2/1099.2
(100/x)*x=(1119.2/1099.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0181950509461*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0181950509461) to get x
100/1.0181950509461=x
98.213009292352=x
x=98.213009292352

now we have:
1099.2 is 98.213009292352% of 1119.2
