91 is what percent of 1428 - 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 1428 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 1428, so we can write it down as 100%=1428.
4. We know, that x% equals 91 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=91.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1428
2) x%=91
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%=1428/91
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 91 is what percent of 1428

100%/x%=1428/91
(100/x)*x=(1428/91)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=15.692307692308*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.692307692308) to get x
100/15.692307692308=x
6.3725490196078=x
x=6.3725490196078

now we have:
91 is 6.3725490196078% of 1428
