884.04 is what percent of 834 - 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 834 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 834, so we can write it down as 100%=834.
4. We know, that x% equals 884.04 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=884.04.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=834
2) x%=884.04
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%=834/884.04
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 884.04 is what percent of 834

100%/x%=834/884.04
(100/x)*x=(834/884.04)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.94339622641509*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.94339622641509) to get x
100/0.94339622641509=x
106=x
x=106

now we have:
884.04 is 106% of 834
