To translate this into a percent equation, we say 9 is the unknown percent of 36, which can be represented as:

9 = x% of 36

To solve for the unknown number x, we set up the proportion:

9/36 = x/100

To find x, we can cross multiply:

9 * 100 = 36 * x

900 = 36x

Finally, we divide both sides by 36:

900/36 = x

25 = x

Therefore, 9 is 25% of 36.
