1115.83 is what percent of 1160 - 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 1160 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 1160, so we can write it down as 100%=1160.
4. We know, that x% equals 1115.83 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1115.83.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1160
2) x%=1115.83
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%=1160/1115.83
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1115.83 is what percent of 1160

100%/x%=1160/1115.83
(100/x)*x=(1160/1115.83)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0395848830019*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0395848830019) to get x
100/1.0395848830019=x
96.19224137931=x
x=96.19224137931

now we have:
1115.83 is 96.19224137931% of 1160
