8.19 is what percent of 8.32 - 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 8.32 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 8.32, so we can write it down as 100%=8.32.
4. We know, that x% equals 8.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=8.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=8.32
2) x%=8.19
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%=8.32/8.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 8.19 is what percent of 8.32

100%/x%=8.32/8.19
(100/x)*x=(8.32/8.19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.015873015873*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.015873015873) to get x
100/1.015873015873=x
98.4375=x
x=98.4375

now we have:
8.19 is 98.4375% of 8.32
