11.61 is what percent of 1041.01 - 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 1041.01 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 1041.01, so we can write it down as 100%=1041.01.
4. We know, that x% equals 11.61 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=11.61.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1041.01
2) x%=11.61
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%=1041.01/11.61
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 11.61 is what percent of 1041.01

100%/x%=1041.01/11.61
(100/x)*x=(1041.01/11.61)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=89.664944013781*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (89.664944013781) to get x
100/89.664944013781=x
1.1152630618342=x
x=1.1152630618342

now we have:
11.61 is 1.1152630618342% of 1041.01
