3.14 is what percent of 28.08 - 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 28.08 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 28.08, so we can write it down as 100%=28.08.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.14 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.14.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=28.08
2) x%=3.14
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%=28.08/3.14
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.14 is what percent of 28.08

100%/x%=28.08/3.14
(100/x)*x=(28.08/3.14)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=8.9426751592357*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.9426751592357) to get x
100/8.9426751592357=x
11.182336182336=x
x=11.182336182336

now we have:
3.14 is 11.182336182336% of 28.08
