8.91 is what percent of 2464.34 - 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 2464.34 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 2464.34, so we can write it down as 100%=2464.34.
4. We know, that x% equals 8.91 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=8.91.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2464.34
2) x%=8.91
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%=2464.34/8.91
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 8.91 is what percent of 2464.34

100%/x%=2464.34/8.91
(100/x)*x=(2464.34/8.91)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=276.58136924804*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (276.58136924804) to get x
100/276.58136924804=x
0.36155725265183=x
x=0.36155725265183

now we have:
