1317.64 is what percent of 9800 - 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 9800 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 9800, so we can write it down as 100%=9800.
4. We know, that x% equals 1317.64 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1317.64.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9800
2) x%=1317.64
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%=9800/1317.64
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1317.64 is what percent of 9800

100%/x%=9800/1317.64
(100/x)*x=(9800/1317.64)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7.4375398439634*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.4375398439634) to get x
100/7.4375398439634=x
13.445306122449=x
x=13.445306122449

now we have:
1317.64 is 13.445306122449% of 9800
