What is 1.3 percent of 1775 - 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 1775 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 1775 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1775=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.3% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.3%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1775=100%
2) x=1.3%
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:
1775/x=100%/1.3%
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 1.3% of 1775

1775/x=100/1.3
(1775/x)*x=(100/1.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1775=76.923076923077*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (76.923076923077) to get x
1775/76.923076923077=x
23.075=x
x=23.075

now we have:
1.3% of 1775=23.075
