433.92 is what percent of 1130 - 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 1130 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 1130, so we can write it down as 100%=1130.
4. We know, that x% equals 433.92 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=433.92.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1130
2) x%=433.92
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%=1130/433.92
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 433.92 is what percent of 1130

100%/x%=1130/433.92
(100/x)*x=(1130/433.92)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.6041666666667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.6041666666667) to get x
100/2.6041666666667=x
38.4=x
x=38.4

now we have:
433.92 is 38.4% of 1130
