96 is what percent of 5333 - 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 5333 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 5333, so we can write it down as 100%=5333.
4. We know, that x% equals 96 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=96.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5333
2) x%=96
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%=5333/96
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 96 is what percent of 5333

100%/x%=5333/96
(100/x)*x=(5333/96)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=55.552083333333*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (55.552083333333) to get x
100/55.552083333333=x
1.8001125070317=x
x=1.8001125070317

now we have:
96 is 1.8001125070317% of 5333
