350.9 is what percent of 9900 - 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 9900 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 9900, so we can write it down as 100%=9900.
4. We know, that x% equals 350.9 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=350.9.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9900
2) x%=350.9
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%=9900/350.9
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 350.9 is what percent of 9900

100%/x%=9900/350.9
(100/x)*x=(9900/350.9)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=28.213166144201*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (28.213166144201) to get x
100/28.213166144201=x
3.5444444444444=x
x=3.5444444444444

now we have:
350.9 is 3.5444444444444% of 9900
