9.6 is what percent of 1014.25 - 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 1014.25 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 1014.25, so we can write it down as 100%=1014.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 9.6 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9.6.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1014.25
2) x%=9.6
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%=1014.25/9.6
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9.6 is what percent of 1014.25

100%/x%=1014.25/9.6
(100/x)*x=(1014.25/9.6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=105.65104166667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (105.65104166667) to get x
100/105.65104166667=x
0.94651220113384=x
x=0.94651220113384

now we have:
9.6 is 0.94651220113384% of 1014.25
