730.05 is what percent of 792 - 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 792 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 792, so we can write it down as 100%=792.
4. We know, that x% equals 730.05 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=730.05.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=792
2) x%=730.05
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%=792/730.05
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 730.05 is what percent of 792

100%/x%=792/730.05
(100/x)*x=(792/730.05)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0848572015615*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0848572015615) to get x
100/1.0848572015615=x
92.17803030303=x
x=92.17803030303

now we have:
730.05 is 92.17803030303% of 792
