952.5 is what percent of 1.143 - 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 1.143 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 1.143, so we can write it down as 100%=1.143.
4. We know, that x% equals 952.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=952.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1.143
2) x%=952.5
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%=1.143/952.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 952.5 is what percent of 1.143

100%/x%=1.143/952.5
(100/x)*x=(1.143/952.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.0012*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0012) to get x
100/0.0012=x
83333.333333333=x
x=83333.333333333

now we have:
952.5 is 83333.333333333% of 1.143
