39.93 is what percent of 43.2 - 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 43.2 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 43.2, so we can write it down as 100%=43.2.
4. We know, that x% equals 39.93 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=39.93.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=43.2
2) x%=39.93
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%=43.2/39.93
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 39.93 is what percent of 43.2

100%/x%=43.2/39.93
(100/x)*x=(43.2/39.93)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0818933132983*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0818933132983) to get x
100/1.0818933132983=x
92.430555555556=x
x=92.430555555556

now we have:
39.93 is 92.430555555556% of 43.2
