What is 1.4 percent of 6724.62 - 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 6724.62 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 6724.62 is 100%, so we can write it down as 6724.62=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.4% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.4%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 6724.62=100%
2) x=1.4%
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:
6724.62/x=100%/1.4%
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 1.4% of 6724.62

6724.62/x=100/1.4
(6724.62/x)*x=(100/1.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
6724.62=71.428571428571*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (71.428571428571) to get x
6724.62/71.428571428571=x
94.14468=x
x=94.14468

now we have:
1.4% of 6724.62=94.14468
