212.48 is what percent of 9600 - 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 9600 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 9600, so we can write it down as 100%=9600.
4. We know, that x% equals 212.48 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=212.48.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9600
2) x%=212.48
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%=9600/212.48
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 212.48 is what percent of 9600

100%/x%=9600/212.48
(100/x)*x=(9600/212.48)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=45.180722891566*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (45.180722891566) to get x
100/45.180722891566=x
2.2133333333333=x
x=2.2133333333333

now we have:
212.48 is 2.2133333333333% of 9600
