903.2 is what percent of 1099 - 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 1099 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 1099, so we can write it down as 100%=1099.
4. We know, that x% equals 903.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=903.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1099
2) x%=903.2
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%=1099/903.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 903.2 is what percent of 1099

100%/x%=1099/903.2
(100/x)*x=(1099/903.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.216784765279*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.216784765279) to get x
100/1.216784765279=x
82.183803457689=x
x=82.183803457689

now we have:
903.2 is 82.183803457689% of 1099
