309.92 is what percent of 294 - 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 294 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 294, so we can write it down as 100%=294.
4. We know, that x% equals 309.92 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=309.92.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=294
2) x%=309.92
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%=294/309.92
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 309.92 is what percent of 294

100%/x%=294/309.92
(100/x)*x=(294/309.92)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.94863190500774*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.94863190500774) to get x
100/0.94863190500774=x
105.41496598639=x
x=105.41496598639

now we have:
309.92 is 105.41496598639% of 294
