What is 1.76 percent of 50755 - 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 50755 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 50755 is 100%, so we can write it down as 50755=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.76% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.76%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 50755=100%
2) x=1.76%
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:
50755/x=100%/1.76%
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 1.76% of 50755

50755/x=100/1.76
(50755/x)*x=(100/1.76)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
50755=56.818181818182*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (56.818181818182) to get x
50755/56.818181818182=x
893.288=x
x=893.288

now we have:
1.76% of 50755=893.288
