What is 92.56 percent of 5.2 - 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 5.2 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 5.2 is 100%, so we can write it down as 5.2=100%.
4. We know, that x is 92.56% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=92.56%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 5.2=100%
2) x=92.56%
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:
5.2/x=100%/92.56%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 92.56% of 5.2

5.2/x=100/92.56
(5.2/x)*x=(100/92.56)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
5.2=1.0803802938634*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0803802938634) to get x
5.2/1.0803802938634=x
4.81312=x
x=4.81312

now we have:
92.56% of 5.2=4.81312
