3.46 is what percent of 91 - 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 91 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 91, so we can write it down as 100%=91.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.46 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.46.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=91
2) x%=3.46
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%=91/3.46
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.46 is what percent of 91

100%/x%=91/3.46
(100/x)*x=(91/3.46)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=26.300578034682*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (26.300578034682) to get x
100/26.300578034682=x
3.8021978021978=x
x=3.8021978021978

now we have:
3.46 is 3.8021978021978% of 91
