103.04 is what percent of 99.03 - 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 99.03 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 99.03, so we can write it down as 100%=99.03.
4. We know, that x% equals 103.04 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=103.04.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=99.03
2) x%=103.04
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%=99.03/103.04
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 103.04 is what percent of 99.03

100%/x%=99.03/103.04
(100/x)*x=(99.03/103.04)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.96108307453416*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.96108307453416) to get x
100/0.96108307453416=x
104.04927799657=x
x=104.04927799657

now we have:
103.04 is 104.04927799657% of 99.03
