89.33 is what percent of 1610 - 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 1610 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 1610, so we can write it down as 100%=1610.
4. We know, that x% equals 89.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=89.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1610
2) x%=89.33
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%=1610/89.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 89.33 is what percent of 1610

100%/x%=1610/89.33
(100/x)*x=(1610/89.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=18.023060561961*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (18.023060561961) to get x
100/18.023060561961=x
5.5484472049689=x
x=5.5484472049689

now we have:
89.33 is 5.5484472049689% of 1610
