8.93 is what percent of 714.6 - 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 714.6 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 714.6, so we can write it down as 100%=714.6.
4. We know, that x% equals 8.93 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=8.93.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=714.6
2) x%=8.93
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%=714.6/8.93
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 8.93 is what percent of 714.6

100%/x%=714.6/8.93
(100/x)*x=(714.6/8.93)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=80.022396416573*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (80.022396416573) to get x
100/80.022396416573=x
1.2496501539323=x
x=1.2496501539323

now we have:
8.93 is 1.2496501539323% of 714.6
