96.56 is what percent of 1446.76 - 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 1446.76 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 1446.76, so we can write it down as 100%=1446.76.
4. We know, that x% equals 96.56 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=96.56.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1446.76
2) x%=96.56
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%=1446.76/96.56
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 96.56 is what percent of 1446.76

100%/x%=1446.76/96.56
(100/x)*x=(1446.76/96.56)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=14.983015741508*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.983015741508) to get x
100/14.983015741508=x
6.6742237827974=x
x=6.6742237827974

now we have:
