82 is what percent of 9029 - 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 9029 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 9029, so we can write it down as 100%=9029.
4. We know, that x% equals 82 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=82.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9029
2) x%=82
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%=9029/82
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 82 is what percent of 9029

100%/x%=9029/82
(100/x)*x=(9029/82)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=110.10975609756*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (110.10975609756) to get x
100/110.10975609756=x
0.90818473806623=x
x=0.90818473806623

now we have:
82 is 0.90818473806623% of 9029
