3864.13 is what percent of 39900 - 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 39900 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 39900, so we can write it down as 100%=39900.
4. We know, that x% equals 3864.13 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3864.13.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=39900
2) x%=3864.13
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%=39900/3864.13
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3864.13 is what percent of 39900

100%/x%=39900/3864.13
(100/x)*x=(39900/3864.13)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.325739558452*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.325739558452) to get x
100/10.325739558452=x
9.6845363408521=x
x=9.6845363408521

now we have:
