9.98 is what percent of 133.12 - 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 133.12 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 133.12, so we can write it down as 100%=133.12.
4. We know, that x% equals 9.98 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9.98.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=133.12
2) x%=9.98
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%=133.12/9.98
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9.98 is what percent of 133.12

100%/x%=133.12/9.98
(100/x)*x=(133.12/9.98)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=13.338677354709*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.338677354709) to get x
100/13.338677354709=x
7.4969951923077=x
x=7.4969951923077

now we have:
9.98 is 7.4969951923077% of 133.12
