810.67 is what percent of 850 - 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 850 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 850, so we can write it down as 100%=850.
4. We know, that x% equals 810.67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=810.67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=850
2) x%=810.67
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%=850/810.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 810.67 is what percent of 850

100%/x%=850/810.67
(100/x)*x=(850/810.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0485154255122*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0485154255122) to get x
100/1.0485154255122=x
95.372941176471=x
x=95.372941176471

now we have:
810.67 is 95.372941176471% of 850
