8.84 is what percent of 67.1 - 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 67.1 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 67.1, so we can write it down as 100%=67.1.
4. We know, that x% equals 8.84 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=8.84.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=67.1
2) x%=8.84
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%=67.1/8.84
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 8.84 is what percent of 67.1

100%/x%=67.1/8.84
(100/x)*x=(67.1/8.84)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7.5904977375566*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.5904977375566) to get x
100/7.5904977375566=x
13.17436661699=x
x=13.17436661699

now we have:
8.84 is 13.17436661699% of 67.1
