129.97 is what percent of 9.248 - 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 9.248 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 9.248, so we can write it down as 100%=9.248.
4. We know, that x% equals 129.97 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=129.97.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9.248
2) x%=129.97
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%=9.248/129.97
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 129.97 is what percent of 9.248

100%/x%=9.248/129.97
(100/x)*x=(9.248/129.97)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.071154881895822*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.071154881895822) to get x
100/0.071154881895822=x
1405.3849480969=x
x=1405.3849480969

now we have:
129.97 is 1405.3849480969% of 9.248
