92 is what percent of 5005.5 - 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 5005.5 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 5005.5, so we can write it down as 100%=5005.5.
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%=5005.5
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%=5005.5/92
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 5005.5

100%/x%=5005.5/92
(100/x)*x=(5005.5/92)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=54.407608695652*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (54.407608695652) to get x
100/54.407608695652=x
1.8379782239537=x
x=1.8379782239537

now we have:
92 is 1.8379782239537% of 5005.5
