949.93 is what percent of 3294 - 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 3294 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 3294, so we can write it down as 100%=3294.
4. We know, that x% equals 949.93 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=949.93.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3294
2) x%=949.93
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%=3294/949.93
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 949.93 is what percent of 3294

100%/x%=3294/949.93
(100/x)*x=(3294/949.93)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.4676239301843*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.4676239301843) to get x
100/3.4676239301843=x
28.838190649666=x
x=28.838190649666

now we have:
949.93 is 28.838190649666% of 3294
