846.36 is what percent of 9150 - 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 9150 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 9150, so we can write it down as 100%=9150.
4. We know, that x% equals 846.36 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=846.36.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9150
2) x%=846.36
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%=9150/846.36
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 846.36 is what percent of 9150

100%/x%=9150/846.36
(100/x)*x=(9150/846.36)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.811002410322*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.811002410322) to get x
100/10.811002410322=x
9.2498360655738=x
x=9.2498360655738

now we have:
846.36 is 9.2498360655738% of 9150
