2094.4 is what percent of 5300 - 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 5300 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 5300, so we can write it down as 100%=5300.
4. We know, that x% equals 2094.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2094.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5300
2) x%=2094.4
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%=5300/2094.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2094.4 is what percent of 5300

100%/x%=5300/2094.4
(100/x)*x=(5300/2094.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.5305576776165*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.5305576776165) to get x
100/2.5305576776165=x
39.516981132075=x
x=39.516981132075

now we have:
2094.4 is 39.516981132075% of 5300
