981.3 is what percent of 1055 - 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 1055 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 1055, so we can write it down as 100%=1055.
4. We know, that x% equals 981.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=981.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1055
2) x%=981.3
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%=1055/981.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 981.3 is what percent of 1055

100%/x%=1055/981.3
(100/x)*x=(1055/981.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0751044532763*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0751044532763) to get x
100/1.0751044532763=x
93.014218009479=x
x=93.014218009479

now we have:
981.3 is 93.014218009479% of 1055
