94.69 is what percent of 540 - 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 540 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 540, so we can write it down as 100%=540.
4. We know, that x% equals 94.69 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=94.69.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=540
2) x%=94.69
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%=540/94.69
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 94.69 is what percent of 540

100%/x%=540/94.69
(100/x)*x=(540/94.69)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.7028197275319*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.7028197275319) to get x
100/5.7028197275319=x
17.535185185185=x
x=17.535185185185

now we have:
94.69 is 17.535185185185% of 540
