13.38 is what percent of 923.08 - 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 923.08 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 923.08, so we can write it down as 100%=923.08.
4. We know, that x% equals 13.38 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=13.38.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=923.08
2) x%=13.38
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%=923.08/13.38
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 13.38 is what percent of 923.08

100%/x%=923.08/13.38
(100/x)*x=(923.08/13.38)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=68.989536621824*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (68.989536621824) to get x
100/68.989536621824=x
1.4494951683494=x
x=1.4494951683494

now we have:
13.38 is 1.4494951683494% of 923.08
