8 is what percent of 90130 - 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 90130 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 90130, so we can write it down as 100%=90130.
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%=90130
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%=90130/8
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 90130

100%/x%=90130/8
(100/x)*x=(90130/8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=11266.25*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11266.25) to get x
100/11266.25=x
0.0088760679019195=x
x=0.0088760679019195

now we have:
8 is 0.0088760679019195% of 90130
