37.95 is what percent of 364.65 - 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 364.65 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 364.65, so we can write it down as 100%=364.65.
4. We know, that x% equals 37.95 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=37.95.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=364.65
2) x%=37.95
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%=364.65/37.95
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 37.95 is what percent of 364.65

100%/x%=364.65/37.95
(100/x)*x=(364.65/37.95)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.6086956521739*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.6086956521739) to get x
100/9.6086956521739=x
10.407239819005=x
x=10.407239819005

now we have:
37.95 is 10.407239819005% of 364.65
