2.93 is what percent of 3.67 - 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 3.67 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 3.67, so we can write it down as 100%=3.67.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.93 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.93.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3.67
2) x%=2.93
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%=3.67/2.93
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.93 is what percent of 3.67

100%/x%=3.67/2.93
(100/x)*x=(3.67/2.93)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.2525597269625*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2525597269625) to get x
100/1.2525597269625=x
79.83651226158=x
x=79.83651226158

now we have:
2.93 is 79.83651226158% of 3.67
