What is 10.21 percent of 103684 - 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 103684 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 103684 is 100%, so we can write it down as 103684=100%.
4. We know, that x is 10.21% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=10.21%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 103684=100%
2) x=10.21%
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:
103684/x=100%/10.21%
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 10.21% of 103684

103684/x=100/10.21
(103684/x)*x=(100/10.21)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
103684=9.794319294809*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.794319294809) to get x
103684/9.794319294809=x
10586.1364=x
x=10586.1364

now we have:
10.21% of 103684=10586.1364
