981.2 is what percent of 1335 - 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 1335 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 1335, so we can write it down as 100%=1335.
4. We know, that x% equals 981.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=981.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1335
2) x%=981.2
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%=1335/981.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 981.2 is what percent of 1335

100%/x%=1335/981.2
(100/x)*x=(1335/981.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3605788830004*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3605788830004) to get x
100/1.3605788830004=x
73.498127340824=x
x=73.498127340824

now we have:
981.2 is 73.498127340824% of 1335
