6.6 is what percent of 92 - 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 92 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 92, so we can write it down as 100%=92.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.6 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.6.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=92
2) x%=6.6
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%=92/6.6
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.6 is what percent of 92

100%/x%=92/6.6
(100/x)*x=(92/6.6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=13.939393939394*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.939393939394) to get x
100/13.939393939394=x
7.1739130434783=x
x=7.1739130434783

now we have:
6.6 is 7.1739130434783% of 92
