9.09 is what percent of 264 - 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 264 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 264, so we can write it down as 100%=264.
4. We know, that x% equals 9.09 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9.09.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=264
2) x%=9.09
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%=264/9.09
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9.09 is what percent of 264

100%/x%=264/9.09
(100/x)*x=(264/9.09)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=29.042904290429*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (29.042904290429) to get x
100/29.042904290429=x
3.4431818181818=x
x=3.4431818181818

now we have:
9.09 is 3.4431818181818% of 264
