372.91 is what percent of 1192 - 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 1192 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 1192, so we can write it down as 100%=1192.
4. We know, that x% equals 372.91 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=372.91.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1192
2) x%=372.91
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%=1192/372.91
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 372.91 is what percent of 1192

100%/x%=1192/372.91
(100/x)*x=(1192/372.91)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.196481724813*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.196481724813) to get x
100/3.196481724813=x
31.284395973154=x
x=31.284395973154

now we have:
372.91 is 31.284395973154% of 1192
