What is 10.55 percent of 62.49 - 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 62.49 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 62.49 is 100%, so we can write it down as 62.49=100%.
4. We know, that x is 10.55% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=10.55%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 62.49=100%
2) x=10.55%
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:
62.49/x=100%/10.55%
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 10.55% of 62.49

62.49/x=100/10.55
(62.49/x)*x=(100/10.55)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
62.49=9.478672985782*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.478672985782) to get x
62.49/9.478672985782=x
6.592695=x
x=6.592695

now we have:
10.55% of 62.49=6.592695
