62 is what percent of 9043 - 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 9043 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 9043, so we can write it down as 100%=9043.
4. We know, that x% equals 62 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=62.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9043
2) x%=62
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%=9043/62
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 62 is what percent of 9043

100%/x%=9043/62
(100/x)*x=(9043/62)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=145.85483870968*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (145.85483870968) to get x
100/145.85483870968=x
0.68561318146633=x
x=0.68561318146633

now we have:
62 is 0.68561318146633% of 9043
