16.93 is what percent of 19.64 - 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 19.64 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 19.64, so we can write it down as 100%=19.64.
4. We know, that x% equals 16.93 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=16.93.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=19.64
2) x%=16.93
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%=19.64/16.93
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 16.93 is what percent of 19.64

100%/x%=19.64/16.93
(100/x)*x=(19.64/16.93)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1600708800945*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1600708800945) to get x
100/1.1600708800945=x
86.201629327902=x
x=86.201629327902

now we have:
16.93 is 86.201629327902% of 19.64
