What is 1.67 percent of 7257 - 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 7257 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 7257 is 100%, so we can write it down as 7257=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.67% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.67%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 7257=100%
2) x=1.67%
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:
7257/x=100%/1.67%
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 1.67% of 7257

7257/x=100/1.67
(7257/x)*x=(100/1.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
7257=59.880239520958*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (59.880239520958) to get x
7257/59.880239520958=x
121.1919=x
x=121.1919

now we have:
1.67% of 7257=121.1919
