What is 1.25 percent of 104.76 - 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 104.76 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 104.76 is 100%, so we can write it down as 104.76=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.25% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.25%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 104.76=100%
2) x=1.25%
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:
104.76/x=100%/1.25%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 1.25% of 104.76

104.76/x=100/1.25
(104.76/x)*x=(100/1.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
104.76=80*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (80) to get x
104.76/80=x
1.3095=x
x=1.3095

now we have:
1.25% of 104.76=1.3095
