39 is what percent of 4293 - 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 4293 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 4293, so we can write it down as 100%=4293.
4. We know, that x% equals 39 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=39.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4293
2) x%=39
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%=4293/39
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 39 is what percent of 4293

100%/x%=4293/39
(100/x)*x=(4293/39)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=110.07692307692*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (110.07692307692) to get x
100/110.07692307692=x
0.90845562543676=x
x=0.90845562543676

now we have:
39 is 0.90845562543676% of 4293
