8 is what percent of 7695 - 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 7695 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 7695, so we can write it down as 100%=7695.
4. We know, that x% equals 8 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=8.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7695
2) x%=8
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%=7695/8
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 8 is what percent of 7695

100%/x%=7695/8
(100/x)*x=(7695/8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=961.875*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (961.875) to get x
100/961.875=x
0.10396361273554=x
x=0.10396361273554

now we have:
8 is 0.10396361273554% of 7695
