96 is what percent of 13274 - 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 13274 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 13274, so we can write it down as 100%=13274.
4. We know, that x% equals 96 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=96.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=13274
2) x%=96
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%=13274/96
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 96 is what percent of 13274

100%/x%=13274/96
(100/x)*x=(13274/96)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=138.27083333333*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (138.27083333333) to get x
100/138.27083333333=x
0.72321832153081=x
x=0.72321832153081

now we have:
96 is 0.72321832153081% of 13274
