96.05 is what percent of 94.16 - 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 94.16 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 94.16, so we can write it down as 100%=94.16.
4. We know, that x% equals 96.05 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=96.05.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=94.16
2) x%=96.05
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%=94.16/96.05
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 96.05 is what percent of 94.16

100%/x%=94.16/96.05
(100/x)*x=(94.16/96.05)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.98032274856845*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.98032274856845) to get x
100/0.98032274856845=x
102.00722175021=x
x=102.00722175021

now we have:
96.05 is 102.00722175021% of 94.16
