What is 10.4625 percent of 75240 - 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 75240 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 75240 is 100%, so we can write it down as 75240=100%.
4. We know, that x is 10.4625% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=10.4625%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 75240=100%
2) x=10.4625%
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:
75240/x=100%/10.4625%
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 10.4625% of 75240

75240/x=100/10.4625
(75240/x)*x=(100/10.4625)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
