9.92 is what percent of 19.57 - 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 19.57 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 19.57, so we can write it down as 100%=19.57.
4. We know, that x% equals 9.92 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9.92.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=19.57
2) x%=9.92
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%=19.57/9.92
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9.92 is what percent of 19.57

100%/x%=19.57/9.92
(100/x)*x=(19.57/9.92)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.9727822580645*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.9727822580645) to get x
100/1.9727822580645=x
50.689831374553=x
x=50.689831374553

now we have:
9.92 is 50.689831374553% of 19.57
