92 is what percent of 1319 - 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 1319 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 1319, so we can write it down as 100%=1319.
4. We know, that x% equals 92 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=92.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1319
2) x%=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%=1319/92
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 92 is what percent of 1319

100%/x%=1319/92
(100/x)*x=(1319/92)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=14.336956521739*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.336956521739) to get x
100/14.336956521739=x
6.9749810462472=x
x=6.9749810462472

now we have:
92 is 6.9749810462472% of 1319
