99.77 is what percent of 110 - 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 110 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 110, so we can write it down as 100%=110.
4. We know, that x% equals 99.77 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=99.77.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=110
2) x%=99.77
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%=110/99.77
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 99.77 is what percent of 110

100%/x%=110/99.77
(100/x)*x=(110/99.77)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1025358324146*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1025358324146) to get x
100/1.1025358324146=x
90.7=x
x=90.7

now we have:
99.77 is 90.7% of 110
