297.69 is what percent of 9914 - 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 9914 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 9914, so we can write it down as 100%=9914.
4. We know, that x% equals 297.69 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=297.69.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9914
2) x%=297.69
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%=9914/297.69
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 297.69 is what percent of 9914

100%/x%=9914/297.69
(100/x)*x=(9914/297.69)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=33.303100540831*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (33.303100540831) to get x
100/33.303100540831=x
3.0027234214242=x
x=3.0027234214242

now we have:
297.69 is 3.0027234214242% of 9914
