94 is what percent of 802 - 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 802 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 802, so we can write it down as 100%=802.
4. We know, that x% equals 94 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=94.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=802
2) x%=94
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%=802/94
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 94 is what percent of 802

100%/x%=802/94
(100/x)*x=(802/94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=8.531914893617*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.531914893617) to get x
100/8.531914893617=x
11.720698254364=x
x=11.720698254364

now we have:
94 is 11.720698254364% of 802
