2.63 is what percent of 9 - 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 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, so we can write it down as 100%=9.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9
2) x%=2.63
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%=9/2.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.63 is what percent of 9

100%/x%=9/2.63
(100/x)*x=(9/2.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.4220532319392*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.4220532319392) to get x
100/3.4220532319392=x
29.222222222222=x
x=29.222222222222

now we have:
2.63 is 29.222222222222% of 9
