93.33 is what percent of 117.29 - 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 117.29 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 117.29, so we can write it down as 100%=117.29.
4. We know, that x% equals 93.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=93.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=117.29
2) x%=93.33
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%=117.29/93.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 93.33 is what percent of 117.29

100%/x%=117.29/93.33
(100/x)*x=(117.29/93.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.2567234544091*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2567234544091) to get x
100/1.2567234544091=x
79.572001023105=x
x=79.572001023105

now we have:
93.33 is 79.572001023105% of 117.29
