29.47 is what percent of 29921 - 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 29921 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 29921, so we can write it down as 100%=29921.
4. We know, that x% equals 29.47 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=29.47.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=29921
2) x%=29.47
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%=29921/29.47
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 29.47 is what percent of 29921

100%/x%=29921/29.47
(100/x)*x=(29921/29.47)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1015.3036986766*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1015.3036986766) to get x
100/1015.3036986766=x
0.098492697436583=x
x=0.098492697436583

now we have:
