9.6 is what percent of 92 - 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 92 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 92, so we can write it down as 100%=92.
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%=92
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%=92/9.6
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 92

100%/x%=92/9.6
(100/x)*x=(92/9.6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.5833333333333*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.5833333333333) to get x
100/9.5833333333333=x
10.434782608696=x
x=10.434782608696

now we have:
9.6 is 10.434782608696% of 92
