9.25 is what percent of 779.98 - 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 779.98 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 779.98, so we can write it down as 100%=779.98.
4. We know, that x% equals 9.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=779.98
2) x%=9.25
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%=779.98/9.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9.25 is what percent of 779.98

100%/x%=779.98/9.25
(100/x)*x=(779.98/9.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=84.322162162162*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (84.322162162162) to get x
100/84.322162162162=x
1.1859278443037=x
x=1.1859278443037

now we have:
9.25 is 1.1859278443037% of 779.98
