884.37 is what percent of 910.87 - 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 910.87 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 910.87, so we can write it down as 100%=910.87.
4. We know, that x% equals 884.37 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=884.37.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=910.87
2) x%=884.37
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%=910.87/884.37
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 884.37 is what percent of 910.87

100%/x%=910.87/884.37
(100/x)*x=(910.87/884.37)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0299648337234*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0299648337234) to get x
100/1.0299648337234=x
97.090693512795=x
x=97.090693512795

now we have:
