119.79 is what percent of 1310 - 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 1310 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 1310, so we can write it down as 100%=1310.
4. We know, that x% equals 119.79 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=119.79.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1310
2) x%=119.79
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%=1310/119.79
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 119.79 is what percent of 1310

100%/x%=1310/119.79
(100/x)*x=(1310/119.79)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.935804324234*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.935804324234) to get x
100/10.935804324234=x
9.1442748091603=x
x=9.1442748091603

now we have:
119.79 is 9.1442748091603% of 1310
