3.83 is what percent of 3.56 - 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 3.56 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 3.56, so we can write it down as 100%=3.56.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.83 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.83.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3.56
2) x%=3.83
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%=3.56/3.83
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.83 is what percent of 3.56

100%/x%=3.56/3.83
(100/x)*x=(3.56/3.83)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.92950391644909*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.92950391644909) to get x
100/0.92950391644909=x
107.58426966292=x
x=107.58426966292

now we have:
3.83 is 107.58426966292% of 3.56
