2167.2 is what percent of 9135 - 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 9135 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 9135, so we can write it down as 100%=9135.
4. We know, that x% equals 2167.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2167.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9135
2) x%=2167.2
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%=9135/2167.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2167.2 is what percent of 9135

100%/x%=9135/2167.2
(100/x)*x=(9135/2167.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.2151162790698*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.2151162790698) to get x
100/4.2151162790698=x
23.724137931034=x
x=23.724137931034

now we have:
2167.2 is 23.724137931034% of 9135
