What is 10.417 percent of 25 - 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 25 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 25 is 100%, so we can write it down as 25=100%.
4. We know, that x is 10.417% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=10.417%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 25=100%
2) x=10.417%
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:
25/x=100%/10.417%
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 10.417% of 25

25/x=100/10.417
(25/x)*x=(100/10.417)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
25=9.5996928098301*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.5996928098301) to get x
25/9.5996928098301=x
2.60425=x
x=2.60425

now we have:
10.417% of 25=2.60425
