931.51 is what percent of 9800 - 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 9800 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 9800, so we can write it down as 100%=9800.
4. We know, that x% equals 931.51 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=931.51.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9800
2) x%=931.51
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%=9800/931.51
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 931.51 is what percent of 9800

100%/x%=9800/931.51
(100/x)*x=(9800/931.51)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.520552651072*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.520552651072) to get x
100/10.520552651072=x
9.5052040816327=x
x=9.5052040816327

now we have:
931.51 is 9.5052040816327% of 9800
