8938.92 is what percent of 9270 - 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 9270 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 9270, so we can write it down as 100%=9270.
4. We know, that x% equals 8938.92 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=8938.92.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9270
2) x%=8938.92
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%=9270/8938.92
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 8938.92 is what percent of 9270

100%/x%=9270/8938.92
(100/x)*x=(9270/8938.92)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.03703803144*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.03703803144) to get x
100/1.03703803144=x
96.428478964401=x
x=96.428478964401

now we have:
8938.92 is 96.428478964401% of 9270
