9.26 is what percent of 10500 - 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 10500 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 10500, so we can write it down as 100%=10500.
4. We know, that x% equals 9.26 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9.26.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=10500
2) x%=9.26
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%=10500/9.26
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9.26 is what percent of 10500

100%/x%=10500/9.26
(100/x)*x=(10500/9.26)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1133.909287257*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1133.909287257) to get x
100/1133.909287257=x
0.088190476190476=x
x=0.088190476190476

now we have:
9.26 is 0.088190476190476% of 10500
