96.33 is what percent of 114 - 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 114 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 114, so we can write it down as 100%=114.
4. We know, that x% equals 96.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=96.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=114
2) x%=96.33
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%=114/96.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 96.33 is what percent of 114

100%/x%=114/96.33
(100/x)*x=(114/96.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1834319526627*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1834319526627) to get x
100/1.1834319526627=x
84.5=x
x=84.5

now we have:
96.33 is 84.5% of 114
