9393.7 is what percent of 12550 - 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 12550 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 12550, so we can write it down as 100%=12550.
4. We know, that x% equals 9393.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9393.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=12550
2) x%=9393.7
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%=12550/9393.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9393.7 is what percent of 12550

100%/x%=12550/9393.7
(100/x)*x=(12550/9393.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3360017884327*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3360017884327) to get x
100/1.3360017884327=x
74.850199203187=x
x=74.850199203187

now we have:
9393.7 is 74.850199203187% of 12550
