360.15 is what percent of 390 - 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 390 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 390, so we can write it down as 100%=390.
4. We know, that x% equals 360.15 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=360.15.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=390
2) x%=360.15
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%=390/360.15
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 360.15 is what percent of 390

100%/x%=390/360.15
(100/x)*x=(390/360.15)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0828821324448*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0828821324448) to get x
100/1.0828821324448=x
92.346153846154=x
x=92.346153846154

now we have:
360.15 is 92.346153846154% of 390
