9.75 is what percent of 419.68 - 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 419.68 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 419.68, so we can write it down as 100%=419.68.
4. We know, that x% equals 9.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=419.68
2) x%=9.75
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%=419.68/9.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9.75 is what percent of 419.68

100%/x%=419.68/9.75
(100/x)*x=(419.68/9.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=43.044102564103*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (43.044102564103) to get x
100/43.044102564103=x
2.3231986275257=x
x=2.3231986275257

now we have:
9.75 is 2.3231986275257% of 419.68
