What is 1.754 percent of 1025 - 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 1025 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 1025 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1025=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.754% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.754%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1025=100%
2) x=1.754%
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:
1025/x=100%/1.754%
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 1.754% of 1025

1025/x=100/1.754
(1025/x)*x=(100/1.754)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1025=57.012542759407*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (57.012542759407) to get x
1025/57.012542759407=x
17.9785=x
x=17.9785

now we have:
1.754% of 1025=17.9785
