7650.16 is what percent of 8500 - 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 8500 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 8500, so we can write it down as 100%=8500.
4. We know, that x% equals 7650.16 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7650.16.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=8500
2) x%=7650.16
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%=8500/7650.16
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7650.16 is what percent of 8500

100%/x%=8500/7650.16
(100/x)*x=(8500/7650.16)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1110878726719*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1110878726719) to get x
100/1.1110878726719=x
90.001882352941=x
x=90.001882352941

now we have:
7650.16 is 90.001882352941% of 8500
