322.92 is what percent of 5292 - 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 5292 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 5292, so we can write it down as 100%=5292.
4. We know, that x% equals 322.92 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=322.92.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5292
2) x%=322.92
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%=5292/322.92
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 322.92 is what percent of 5292

100%/x%=5292/322.92
(100/x)*x=(5292/322.92)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=16.387959866221*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16.387959866221) to get x
100/16.387959866221=x
6.1020408163265=x
x=6.1020408163265

now we have:
322.92 is 6.1020408163265% of 5292
