3.93 is what percent of 98.24 - 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 98.24 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 98.24, so we can write it down as 100%=98.24.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.93 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.93.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=98.24
2) x%=3.93
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%=98.24/3.93
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.93 is what percent of 98.24

100%/x%=98.24/3.93
(100/x)*x=(98.24/3.93)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=24.997455470738*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (24.997455470738) to get x
100/24.997455470738=x
4.0004071661238=x
x=4.0004071661238

now we have:
3.93 is 4.0004071661238% of 98.24
