Sorry since % is given, we cant take 360. Divide it by 100 i.e.
Step 1: 9/100 x 5700 = 513.
Step 2: 8/100 x 8550 = 684.
Step 3: Percentage => 513/684 x 100 = 75%.
If the values were in degree instead of %, divide them by 360 as shown before.
Step 1: 9/100 x 5700 = 513.
Step 2: 8/100 x 8550 = 684.
Step 3: Percentage => 513/684 x 100 = 75%.
If the values were in degree instead of %, divide them by 360 as shown before.

Step 1: 9/360 x 5700 = 142.5.
Step 2: 8/360 x 8550 = 190.
Step 3: Percentage => 142.5/190 x 100 = 75%.
Step 2: 8/360 x 8550 = 190.
Step 3: Percentage => 142.5/190 x 100 = 75%.

{[(9% of 100)*5700/(8% of 100)*8550]*100}% = {[9/100*8*100*5700*8550]*100}%.
={[29/38]*100}%.
= {0.76*100}%.
= Approx 76%.
={[29/38]*100}%.
= {0.76*100}%.
= Approx 76%.

Can you give some formula to calculate percentage easily like.
I divide 9*5700/8*8550 then it comes finally 57/76, to this its a lengthy process. Give some sort calculation formula.

10%-1% = 9%.
So,
5700*10% = 570.
5700*1% = 57.
570-57 = 513 or 5700*9/100 = 513.
So,
5700*10% = 570.
5700*1% = 57.
570-57 = 513 or 5700*9/100 = 513.

@ malika arjun :
Its quite simple divide what is the total and multiply what you are getting into 100.
