9.63 is what percent of 141.7 - 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 141.7 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 141.7, so we can write it down as 100%=141.7.
4. We know, that x% equals 9.63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9.63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=141.7
2) x%=9.63
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%=141.7/9.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9.63 is what percent of 141.7

100%/x%=141.7/9.63
(100/x)*x=(141.7/9.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=14.714434060228*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.714434060228) to get x
100/14.714434060228=x
6.7960479887085=x
x=6.7960479887085

now we have:
9.63 is 6.7960479887085% of 141.7
