9900.86 is what percent of 10474 - 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 10474 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 10474, so we can write it down as 100%=10474.
4. We know, that x% equals 9900.86 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9900.86.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=10474
2) x%=9900.86
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%=10474/9900.86
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9900.86 is what percent of 10474

100%/x%=10474/9900.86
(100/x)*x=(10474/9900.86)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.057887900647*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.057887900647) to get x
100/1.057887900647=x
94.527974030934=x
x=94.527974030934

now we have:
