93.29 is what percent of 500 - 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 500 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 500, so we can write it down as 100%=500.
4. We know, that x% equals 93.29 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=93.29.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=500
2) x%=93.29
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%=500/93.29
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 93.29 is what percent of 500

100%/x%=500/93.29
(100/x)*x=(500/93.29)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.3596312573695*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.3596312573695) to get x
100/5.3596312573695=x
18.658=x
x=18.658

now we have:
93.29 is 18.658% of 500
