767.5 is what percent of 922 - 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 922 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 922, so we can write it down as 100%=922.
4. We know, that x% equals 767.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=767.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=922
2) x%=767.5
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%=922/767.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 767.5 is what percent of 922

100%/x%=922/767.5
(100/x)*x=(922/767.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.2013029315961*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2013029315961) to get x
100/1.2013029315961=x
83.24295010846=x
x=83.24295010846

now we have:
767.5 is 83.24295010846% of 922
